As you can see in the photo below, my bike at some stage has been wired up by some sort of retarded Walruss.

The bike has Boyer MK111 ignition ( 1970 roadster ).

Where and how is the Horn and Capacitor mounted, would also appreciate photos of chain oiler system.

The horn is attached to the underside of the battery tray (by a "two-ply" triangular mounting plate) utilising the same two bolts which also double-up as the lower front mudguard mountings. It's practically impossible to get a decent photo of the assembly, but there is an illustration in the manual.

The central bolt from the horn mounting plate goes through the rear mudguard front hole as L.A.B says. You may need a spacer, a couple of 1/4 nuts usually does fine.

Original capacitor and rectifier mounting.

Can't help you with the oiler, I removed is so long ago I don't have the parts and can't remember. It was a large source of oil all over anyhow. I crimped it off at the return banjo on the tank and soldered it shut.

Yes, I was forgetting that the pre-'71 models only have the single fixing, unlike the later models where both bolts secure the mudguard.
