The alternator is smoking on my 850R! So it probably needs replacing at a wild guess. Staggeringly, a Bosch replacement on Ebay seems to run at around £500!!!
So what are the replacement options?

The part number on it is (I think) 9162633 - it's a 100amp on an R (which is of course a 1996).

So does anyone have a recommendation for a replacement (or risking a s/h part?), and how much labour is involved in replacing it?

Cheers in advance.

Phil.
