Many Thanks for the replies.

The eBay solenoid looks fine but no Amperage is mentioned so, I'm wary.

If I'm going to convert to non-std then this 150A from the Aprilia world would be my choice

As for the starter switch; it seems the same unit was used on 748/916/996/998 also.

They are available in France but I'm guessing about £120 by the time we get raped on import duty/taxes etcetera...

Meanwhile in Gotham city:

I found the 1100 Hypermotard switch that appears similar in operation (comparing wiring diagrams says the same). BUT, wire colours are different and OF COURSE, the old version has a flat Superseal connection while the Hyper item uses two pairs of connectors stacked above each other in a box.

I did have the idea of wiring up an adapter cable so both OEM cables 'remain the same' but my patience is at a premium these days lol.

*Fuel filter, these guys even tell you where else to look ;-)
