It’s actually pretty easy to wire in the new vintage switches. You bare the ends of the wires from the Minda controls and plug them into posts with set screws in the new vintage switches. No soldering required. You just have to decide which style of vintage switch will work with each of the Minda functions. PM me for more info.

Beautiful controls setup. Do the vintage switches terminals correspond to the Minda pods? How difficult was it to rewire everything?

The speedo is a Smith's reproduction available from CMW or Hitchcock's. The needle wobbles a bit at speeds over 50. The ammeter is a genuine Lucas, also available from the above dealers. Now if I could only get rid of that hideous starter...

You can get the brake, clutch, decompressor, and throttle with all cables as a set from CMW or Hitchcock's. You can find all the switches on eBay. Just search under "vintage switch" in the motorcycle parts section.
