Hi.
I have an Eibar series 2 and i want to put an electronic ignition.
I have put a simplified wiring loom and the Lambretta have LI type light switch.
Someone have a diagram?
Thanks!

Thank you!!!!

That is very very helpful mate....Thanks!

P.S: Fareham, Hants, isn't it where the legendary Rafferty Newman was? I think I have an original 60's pin of them.

It certainly was, Jaime... It's where I bought my 1966 Li150 Special from in 1969....

Rafferty Newman is still here, but now a Triumph dealer.

Just been picky but not keen on the stator power to the front end going through the rear brake switch and the horn before getting to the front light junction box. I would look at going to the lamp holder then down to the horn and back to the rear brake light. On the other hand you may not have the same problems with damp, salt and all the sh1t you get off the road, under your bike.

Agreed, but I don't make these electronic looms, so all I can do is draw a diagram using one of the commonly available ones, like the MB type shown.
Personally, I wouldn't use electronic looms but plenty of people do.

Monty / Kev,

Whilst my knowledge of electrics is minimal, I can see the reasoning behind what you are saying about running the power through the rear brake switch and horn.

On this basis, are you aware of anyone that sells alternative/custom looms (to the standard off-the-shelf MB or SR ones), which avoid the issue raised above (and any other issues I may not be aware of!), for someone like me who is unable to produce their own loom?

Thanks

I know a guy who makes electronic and other looms to customers spec if any one wants his Number PM Me or he goes on the LCGB forums under username Barney
