    Yes I realise that Tony but it is the same basic circuit as far as the charging side works. I think the electronic voltage control module would be a good mod as it would do away with the need for two headlight switches & simplify the circuit. (God knows why it needed these even with the original system) The indicators would just be wired in on a separate circuit from the battery.

      Battery

      I am using 2 6volt 8 amp Celcon batteries to give me 12 Volts. They are the slimmest and fit under the seat. Conveniently they have holes in the top ready to bolt together.
      I have a voltage regulator now so I will start connecting and hope I put the correct wire in the correct place (be a first Dave)

                Egnaro nearly finished

                Now has electronic ignition, lights and starts first kick. The Mikuni was fitted as that what the bike came
                with (thanks for checking it Dave), as did the exhaust.
                A few more small jobs to do then it will be ready for an MOT and registration. I must confess that when my son
                said for f@£$%^k sake do it any colour other than Moorland blue, I think he was right.
                I think his choice of orange has turned out better than expected and the whole thing seems to work - well it does for me
                Soon it will be orange and Devon red mud

                  Looks a treat Tony....the colour makes the bike look purposefull & its good to see one thinking outside the box for a change...well done........
                  you should be a prophet with vision like that............unlike me, who has yet to make one!......

                    Egnaro is good....!!

                    Greeves Of The Year....!!

                    .....for me, anyway...... With you all the way Dave, and I think your son was right too Tony!

                    I really like your Ranger, and I'd go as far as to say it's one of my favourite Greeves ever....it just 'works' so well mate....

                    Well done indeed, and great that it's nearly ready for you to to enjoy as intended.

                    Brian.

                        Very nice bike, you've done an outstanding job As for the color I love it, I am a KTM guy after all Not sure if its the correct Morland orange though

                          It looks good! If it were a museum example, then I think it should have been done in the historic colour etc. BUT it's been built to ride by a gent who wants it his way, and he has done a brilliant job of it!

                            The next Ranger will be true to it's origins, down to the chrome rims.
                            I am just waiting for a busy man to perform some magic on the frame - no names mentioned Dave --oops
