Narrative:

I served as first officer and PF from ind on mar/tue/04. The #1 CSD was disconnected by maintenance. During the takeoff roll, after achieving 80 KIAS but before V1, the master caution light illuminated. Captain decided to continue the takeoff. After takeoff, the captain worked the abnormal and after takeoff checklists. As we were climbing between 3000-7000 ft, he was able to restore the #2 bus. At this point we had 2 generators working. We continued our climb and then at some intermediate leveloff point the #2 generator kicked off again. I concentrated on flying the aircraft and handling ATC communications. I heard the captain saying something on the #2 radio about cvg as an airport to divert to. I then pulled up the current WX for cvg and observed that the WX there was approximately 1 mi visibility with snow and low overcast skies and fairly gusty winds. We discussed that it was not a good idea to go over to cvg or go back to ind since they both had approximately the same WX. Destination airport was reporting good VFR and temperature about 65 degrees. When we were approximately 220 mi from destination, we decided to continue. We reviewed the loss of all generators checklist and discussed what items such as captain's standby altimeter, airspeed, VHF #1, #2 communication, etc, would be available to us. Approach and landing were uneventful.
