Hi all, newbie here so please be gentle. :unsure:

I've just bought a 1983 DT125 LC to use as a field bike and would like to remove any unnecessary wiring. (indicators, lights .etc)

Anyone know what I can rip out and what I need to leave in? I don't want to go ahead and remove something I shouldn't...

Also, anyone know what plug I should use in this? (my service manual hasn't arrived yet)

Cheers

Chris

    I think I've sussed it!

    Red with black tracing (from the stator) to Red with black tracing on the CDI.

    Black (from the stator) to black on the CDI

    Orange from CDI to orange on the coil.

    The rest of the wiring harness is sitting on the floor of my shed, and the bike still has a spark. (result!)

    I'm a bit concearned though. There's a spare wire on the output side of the CDI (black with white tracing) what's this wire for?

    Also, does anyone know if I still need the rectifier/regulator?

    P.S

    The plug is a NGK BR8ES, incase anyone needs to know.
