Ouch, what is excessive play in switch unit? Rotates round bars or non positive switch movement? Fingers crossed for cheap ebay purchases! Nowt wrong with a CG125, just needs lots or revs to gogogo  |

Sorted a new disc, 97 quid from wemoto including P&P.. ouch!
Excessive play in the switch unit it because the hole in the bar that the pin on the switch unit sits into isn't there, so there's no pin either, so yes, it rotates..
Headlamp bulb is the wrong colour too apparantly.. wtf!

have you thought of glueing on another pin, thats what my mechanic did and it works fine now. He did have some industrial strength superglue though.
I initially had it rapped round with half a dozen raps of insulating tape and the screwed it back together to nip up tight, which did stop the rotation. But as it is an MOT fail opted to get it fixed.
