Even funnier ,my 30+ year old switches work fine ,NEVER let me down.THe
funny thing is the lamp cord often seen on older Japanese bikes is there
for the same reason as all the other bikes it winds up on. The owners
didn't understand basic maintenance. The Jap stuff is far from bullet
proof and very over rated. BTW shrink wrap (Polyolefin) is not at all
supple. Good vinyl is. I do hate to see bikes come in where shrink tube
is used in place of vinyl flex.
I bought an Eldo this year that was about 20% wired with lamp cord.Tom
(Bowes)and I had quite a laugh! The horn switch was a doorbell button 33
Scotch taped to the handlebar. A CH toggle switch on the other bar for
the turn signal. This was all done about 15 years ago by the PO. Every
thing worked ! I did replace the lamp stuff and the switches. Replaced
with automotive primary wiring and put the original CEV switches back
on. Not a single glitch in the 5000+ miles so far this summer and I am
sure they won't be a problem in the future. Never had any problems with
the stuff in the past. NOW as for my neighbors' CB900 Honda...... :-)

funny, jap wiring and switches seem to always work without a problem.
Even
after years of neglect. I took hammer to the junk CEV switches and
replaced
them with good aluminum housed jap switches. I love a 30 year old switch

that has solid connections, still supple insulation and shrink wrap and
no
brittle bakelite crap.
Unfortunately can't say the same for italian wiring and switches. And I
do
have choice words for cheapskate dipsticks and lampcord wiring.
