deanogasgas Posted December 26, 2014 Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 Hi all, and seasons greetings. Just tried to fit an Apico magnetic lanyard to my 2012 Sherco and its not long enough.. do they do a longer version or will I have to get the heet shrink gun out. Also its a female end rather than a male... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ady witting Posted December 26, 2014 Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 Hi There. I have fitted 1 to my 2011 sherco and all you have to do is extend the wires, the wires on the end of the switch need to be male, 1 to earth, the other 1 to the cdi wire which is a cut out wire.

deanogasgas Posted December 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 Thought I might have to extend... The two wires on the Apico are one earth and one male. The original Sherco cut off has one earth and one female that connects to the male wire going to the cdi cut out...!! I will have to change the male for female on the Apico unit.

b_42woody Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 I just purchased the Leonelli magnetic lanyard. It appears to be virtually identical to the Apico unit including the short wire issue, unfortunately. I don't fancy extending the wires - I'd rather replace them. It looks as if the switch can be disassembled - soft silicone (?) sealant under the bar mount seems to be holding it together. Has anybody tried to disassemble one of these units? If so, can I solder new wires to the contacts? Thanks, Woody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
