Paul,
Any standard Bosch style automotive "cube" relay of 30 amps or higher
rating should work. You can find them at any auto parts store, if you
know what you are looking for. If not, I can find my terminal supply
catalog and give you some part numbers.

| John, I looked thru guzziology and found what I was looking for. Thanks. I started today on getting it fitted. I followed Tom Bowes suggestion on grinding off the small vertical plate by the upper mount ( Gee it's great to have a Dremel for this type of work). I also drilled out the threads on this mount so I could push the bolt thru and tighten it all up. I had to paint the starter where I removed the vertical plate so it looks like nothing was ever modified. Looks real good. I will take some pictures of everything I have done so if anyone else wants to see they can see how I did it. The only thing I still have to do is wire up the relay, but I want to make sure on what relay I need for this.

My eldo had a relay so I hooked up the valeo and everything was cool. When I return home I will look through guzziology to see if there are any exceptions and let you know if there are any. Good luck.
