[QUOTE="Tom Gaynor, post: 2263, member: 4034"] [b]Electrickery[/b] The electric starter came from Francois Grosset. (I had bought one of his distributors earlier when my mag showed signs of breathing its last. RIP.....) Trevor Southwell machined the inside of the kickstart cover to give the requisite clearance, and fixed the broken cover. Creating the clearance probably isn't a big job anyway. I'm very please with it. I bought the complete kit (rather than modify my originals). I'm a complete convert: it has NEVER failed. I fitted it in stages as part of an overhaul, but I reckon it could easily be fitted in a morning if one had all the bits to hand. Wiring was a bit of a fiddle since i chose to mount a Lucas ignition (key) switch beneath the battery platform. Appearance is unaffected. You might wonder why I had a horn button on both ends of the bars, but otherwise you'd be hard pushed to spot it. The only downside is that one can't pull in the clutch while in gear and move the bike backwards but that is scarcely a show-stopper, just select neutral. [/QUOTE]
