Some of you have seen the RD50/60/LC/AC thing I'm building. The plan is to not bother painting powder coating or polishing anything just yet all I want to do is go get an MOT. So the easiest route is a day time MOT. For that I need a speedo and a horn. No electrics needed there. However I do need a coil. What can I use? Any ideas? And a carb. 22mm sounds about right to me but I could be wrong. Also an exhaust but I'll buy something and (ahem) adapt it to fit.
Wondering if I've missed anything. I have an engine, wheels with brakes. New bearings on everything. A number plate! Do I need a rear light too? Saw an Aprilia rs140 (big bore kit) the other day and that had a rear light...
Any help is welcomed!

My Drz was failed because it didn't have a stop lamp so that is interesting. Tbh though why would you not want one? If you don't fit one as well and you are in an accident would there be any liability your way?

You don't need a brake light but it's insanity not to have one so I will. Dusty I didn't realise those coils were in 2 parts does he sell them separately?
Any carb ideas lads? Exhausts? The little RD has the screw on type of exhaust flange, not sure if this restricts my options or not. Are they easy to attach to a pipe?

Hi mate I think Norbo sells the Banshee coils for 125 lc's which only require 1. Worth asking him Dusty

Not sure but I think most Yam carbs from that era could be adapted to fit. Just ordered a Banshee coil ta for the tip Dusty!
