I put a cheeky teaspoon of Castrol R  in my next doors lawn mower when he wasn't looking.
It has done more good than harm.

Good luck with the project.
I have always had a soft spot for these. Since the father of my mate had a red one in 1971.

Hello.
Does anyone here know where the main earth point is supposed to be?
I would have assumed it to be near the coil.
But there is no sign of the usual green wire with a ring terminal there or anywhere else.
Regards.
Sean.

You could give this guy a ring.

He is very helpful. And makes the spokes himself. So he would probably be able to help.

Yes. The 12v conversion I'm using is the mighty fine Electric world item.
Very simple to fit. But you will have to convert to Led bulbs throughout.

Bit of a update.
The Electric world 12v convertion works a treat. The bike has never started so easily. Strongly recommend.

I think Andrew. You will find the Motorsport s very pleasing bike to ride on the road.

Be warned. The 6v electrics are abysmal.
The headlight is excellent. But the rest not so.
I am currently converting to 12v.

The switch on my bike has 3 position's off, dip, main. On the R/h side.
Which means it too easy to switch the lights off completely. When only trying to dip. Which does nothing for  relaxed night time ride out.

That reminds me. I really should get on with converting my sloper to 12v.
Why any manufacturers fitted 6v. Is totally beyond mem

Hello Bryan.
Thank you for your help. It looks like the way to go. The switch as it is rather negates any confidence gained from my new LED H4 bulb.
Which I strongly recommend. As for "not being cheap"  nothing is.
Especially regarding Cb750's

Yes. It is such a bad design.
I thought if trying to fit some F1 switches I have. But they are completely different.

Is it me. Or is the headlight switch on the 750 k1. Dangerous?
Is there an alternative?

It's the glass the light is shining through. Not the paint.
Look at it properly before finding fault.
