Hi,I need a handlebar mounted choke lever for my `81 500 Sport,are they mounted on the clutch lever on the LH side or RH mounted on the handlebar?

Hi, on the 500 it's mounted under the clutch lever, there was also a handlebar mounted version that Harglo supplied as a kit to replace the individual carb flip up levers. I prefer the individual carb levers as the cables/junction box can stick in use. Hope this helps, Ian
ps On some Guzzis I've seen a combined junction box flip up lever.

it`s got the junction box and two cables to the carbs and the previous owner used a vicegrip to pull on the cable by the headlight-not really ideal and want something a bit more functional-so the one under the clutch could be a universal type or are they Morini specific?-like on ebay?

Hi again, a universal choke lever will be easier to source - Magura or an Amal (air lever) British bike type are probably of better quality than the Morini one which has a plastic lever and is pretty basic, good luck

this is the guzzi type:

2 cables run out the back to the carbs
I have a few (without cables and with the lever broken), you can have one for postage cost (from NL)
the cables and lever can be obtained from any Guzzi dealer
