He said the system was only 12 volts. Howya gonna charge a bike battery
w/ that? Rectifier isn't gonna jack the voltage up any...

Not a problem. "12V AC" is usually 12V RMS - meaning nearly 18V peak. A
full-wave rectifier will out put two nice 18V peaks per cycle that will charge a 12V
battery just fine.
