No, that switch will not work.



You need a switch from a 78-81 bike. The other switch if for a TI type bike you need one for a CDI bike.

I just noticed you are in the UK,,I am not certain of the years that the CDI bikes were made over there,,but as long as it is for a CDI type bike it should work.
