Yes, finding one with the correct functions may take a bit of time as some of the scooter ones don’t have the high/low switch.

But with the code you can at least search for the model family.

I’ll look out for one at novegro too in a few weeks- let me know if you find one in the meantime

You are after a CEV 303. If you find the right switch hardware, even if the wiring is too short or a different pin out that can be resolved reasonably easily. These are available used and if you can find them new from time to time. There is a new one listed on eBay from nonsolofrecce (who I have bou...

I don’t have a kokusan Excalibur parts book. However the switchgear is different for kokusan and non kokusan models which explains why non-kokusan Excalibur is a different part number to kokusan New York. I’m pretty sure kokusan New York and Excaliburs use the same switchgear, but you might find the...

Actually, the essential, basic question is - is it correct that there should be a 12 Volt potential on the yellow stator wires when the battery is connected?

Yes, with the engine not running you should see battery voltage between each yellow wire and earth.

I had the last NOS one that NLM had in stock, and to be honest the wire did not last very long even on that. I also had a NOS dart fuel tap (real rarity) and the wires literally fell apart when I decided to use it last year. So new, and properly stored may not be all it cracks up to be (pun intended...

No, doesn’t sound right to me. Have you inspected the wiring loom to the stator to make sure you don’t have a break or melt in the wires shorting the red and yellows? Are you sure the wires aren’t (or haven’t previously been) trapped behind the stator backplate? It’s easy to do this and nip a wire w...

It is as you say, but it’s not easy to do. I would probably not try going in from the top, I’d probably try digging the epoxy out of the bottom and splicing on. Disturbing the brass tube and solder risks having oil leaks in the future too. To be honest morinis don’t use much oil and I’ve always foun...

Before going down the lines of a rewire I would advise that you overhaul the fusebox. They almost always show signs of ageing and an overhaul whilst it won’t necessarily fix your issue might prevent a few dead ends along the way. The fusebox has a number of riveted bus bars between some of the blade...

Fabulous, great investigative work!

I would assume the same will fit other 1200 models too- any chance we can do some testing on any local Corsaro/granpasso etc?

I’d definitely be tempted to get one for my corsaro

No credit due to me here, Barry has been dealing with it and has put a lot of hours in to resolve the issues. Full credit to him

As you might have noticed, the Forum has been offline for the last 3 days as the hosting company had to block it due to an overwhelming number of Bots. The forum hasn't been hacked, but the server hosting it was having issues coping with the increase in traffic. Unfortunately, this is becoming an in...

The items you mention as not working are the ones which use 6V DC. (The headlight is 12v AC) so the first thing to check is do you actually have 6v in the battery. My kanguro currently is running total loss as the regulator isn’t charging so whilst the headlight works fine, everything else only work...

Contact Arthur the club’s machine registrar. He has successfully guided several members through this process.

You will still need a NOVA but if the bike has been in the UK since before the NOVA system was introduced it’s a slightly different route.

I can confirm, an excellent time was had by all, and thanks to Gordon for riding ahead to photograph us coming through
