Hi
I have recently become the proud owner of a MK 111 commando I have been wanting since my teenage years (the bikes were new then)
It was imported from the UK and was in pretty fair condition given its age
I have pulled it to bits and am doing a ground up restore
The bike has an SU carby and is otherwise concourse but the wires to the kill switch were not connected to anything inside the switch housing and I am at a loss as to how these connect to the 3 point switch
The switch is intact and has 2 contacts in a plate that sits under the switch lever and while these seem to be the obvious place to connect them there is no sign of there ever being any wires connected to them
So I am wondering if something is missing or if these wires can be connected without anything else without any problem
I assume it would not matter which wire went to which terminal as they both have the same function unless I am right off the track which is possible
I have stacks of photos of the dismantling and will do the same when reassembling and will post photos if anyone is interested
I am new to this site and it will take a while to sus it out
Cheers
