Your existing 6 volt, 3 brush generator will indeed charge a 12 volt battery. Change out the 6 volt cut out [that round thing on top of generator] , for a 12 volt cutout, or install a diode in the original cutout housing. Polarise the generator for neg earth, adjust the third brush and you're racing....
