If wants the whole bike in 12v needs CDI, regulator, 12v bulb(s), Flasher. The old horn works in 12V .
The chinese Honda "WH125-3" that was imported to UK

Not so important:
New Handlebar Switch & wiring for electric start. New 12V battery that will fits the "old" position (From chinese forum says it's a 5Ah ) . Led bulb in dash for easier reading.

You could wire a switch directly to the starter-motor, it ain't rocket-science. I've done the same with rad-fans.


12v switched supply (only live when the ignition is on) via a starter button push switch operating a relay/solenoid straight off the 12v battery both fuse protected of course.

Bit harder if the bike has a 6v system as the whole charging system and ingnition plus lamps would have to be replaced.

What are you saying, that it is rocket-science? Laughing



Maybe you should stick to machining bits of metal and painting models........... Laughing
