You probably want to go into town, and find a up to date Jap Bike store,
With a full spares department, a clean workshop, and kean young mechanics.
And ask them if theres a Grumpy Old Bloke out in the Hills, who knows how to fix Real Motorcycles.

Great stuff and very good protection.
Stiff price for a sticker, even it is less expensive than a new electrical system; I think I'll keep doing my own work for now

$3-4 is too much? I'm trying to think of how many Norton parts are less than $3...

For me, anyway, I wired my Norton with a negative ground, I won't be forgetting, or if I do it will be serve a higher purpose
Good stuff!

I guess a pack of the LUCAS stickers would be handy to attach to the parts you should replace when you get the time...

Just did that to mine as well. Broke my heart to make red wires negative, but I'll get over it.
