Maybe, but a winding made for 12 volts will have many more turns. Running 12 volts on a 6 volt coil (as in the voltage regulator coil) will dissipate 4 times the planned heat and probably burn up the coil in a few hours if not sooner. To raise the voltage you increase the spring tension on the voltage regulator coil. (The one with the finest wire in the winding). 12 volt regulators with the same connections as 6 volt regulators do exist. The 6 volt generator will need to turn faster to charge at 12 volts than it takes to charge at 6 volts. Gerald J.
