Edited to add:
The only real "benefit" would be the wider range of accessories available. Not much made anymore for positive ground.
The electron (smoke) in the wires doesn't really care which way ground is.... It's just going around in circles.

One final question, given i have brand new loom, regulator and refurbished dynamo, do i need to perform the procedure outlined in the link above?
