Thanks Ross for your informative answers.

If I'm going to install them I'd like to go the route of using relays.
Anyone have a wiring diagram or schematic I could follow using relay(s)?

were used to replace the CEV switches. Any Japanese bike junkyard should
have them. They were available new 10 years ago.
2. Moto Guzzi Classics and MG Cycles should have the brackets, if
someone on the list doesn't have spares. Aside, Lucas lights were
specified by Guzzi but I believe after the Ambo run. Both LAPD Ambos I
have had had Stanley for the turn signals, it may have been whether the
particular dealer carried British or Japanese bikes. I have since
replaced them with Dietz, more appropriate for the LAPD.
3. Wire from the diagram in Chiltons, Haynes, or the original manual
from Premier. Very easy to follow. I can supply a copy if you need it.
If you wish to use relays, the best route and something I plan but have
not done yet, I am sure someone can supply instructions.

Ross
