gstallons Posted June 6 Posted June 6 To all members that are packrats : I need some things to get my 2000 Greenie back in shape . I need the r.h. switchgear . The starting switch decided to hang . I also need the l.h. front turn signal lens and if I can't straighten the l.h. bar I will be looking for one of those too. I have one somewhere and CANNOT find it. Let me know , it is down for a little while .
docc Posted June 6 Posted June 6 Open that switch and clean it with CRC Eelctronics Cleaner and follow with Caig DeOxit. Turn signal lens at MG Cycle: https://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=37_156&products_id=85
gstallons Posted June 7 Author Posted June 7 The switch has a broken piece of plastic in it or I would be happy to . I will get the lens from MG Cycle tomorrow . Maybe the switch too ? 1
docc Posted June 7 Posted June 7 I don't see the switch at MGCycle (GU01738800) Seems that switch was also used on various Ducati (Monster?) and others back in the day? 2
docc Posted June 7 Posted June 7 Looks like CadreCycle or AF1Racing might get the switch special order . . . https://cadrecycle.com/product/switch-rh-2/ https://www.af1racing.com/search?q=01738800&adv=true&cid=0&isc=true&mid=0&vid=0&pf=&pt=&sid=true&adv=false&isc=false&sid=false

Scud Posted June 7 Posted June 7 I probably have a starter switch and turn signal lens. But I'll need to dig a bit to confirm. As for the bar - I had success straightening mine in a vise using wood blocks to apply the pressure where needed. You could also drop by a machine shop and they'd probably straighten it out for $20. I might have a handle bar, but what you just experienced is the reason I was holding on to it. Let me know if you can't straighten yours out.
