Standard Generator or Alternator conversion?

The voltage regulator doesn't need to be polarized. They aren't polarity sensitive.
What trouble are you having? Not charging? Over charging?

Here's the instructions on how to check the generator and polarize, if needed:

Good Luck. Let us know how it turns out.
