I have one of those switches on my Eldo. It works great.
The wire length is tight when you connect inside the headlight shell.

This usually leads to the search for upgraded parts to replace it. I recently picked up a T3 for repair & resell with an "everything" switch on the left handlebar so neat that I researched where it came from & ordered one for my Eldo. The Eldo has a Suzuki switch with a turn signal portion getting sloppy. The new switch is made by K&S Technologies Inc., #12-0030, Universal Turn Signal Switch. It has headlight on/off, hi/low beam. push to cancel turnsignals, horn, & a Euro style trigger on the front for hi beam flash. Only 1 7/8" wide & about 2" deep, it is set up w/25" of wire, about 16" out to a compact 9 pin plug, the rest in leads to connect to the bike wiring harness. The card it's packed on has a plug diagram on the back identifying the function & wire color code of each pin. Combined w/the bike wiring diagram installation should be a snap. The switch is DOT & SAE approved. It appears well made (Taiwan) w/ typical Oriental construction inside & water drain holes on the bottom, (unlike some recent Guzzi switch's!). Of course, time will tell how well it holds up. The only possible problem I can see is that the switches are compact & may be difficult to feel in heavy gloves. I got mine from Gordon at MG Cycle. The cost was $58.95. Ron Komoroski Your free subscription is supported by today's sponsor: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Need a new Cell Phone?
