Bonanza Light Kit

[dwarfbike]

I have never had a light kit for a mini bike. I am building a Bonanza right now and plan to put a kit on that bike. Are the headlights hi/low beam? Was the rear a taillight or taillight/brake light? Any information would be helpful! Thanks in advance.

Depends on which model and what are you using for a motor?

Strictly Hodaka, now Hodaka Parts had the wiring harnesses for the BC models. Not sure if the chopper models used a different one. The tail light was also a brake light. The switches are available on E Bay. I’m sure The Bonanza Gurus will provide more information.

check out post #2 by AJF in this thread below for a shot of a brake light switch mounted on a jackshafted chopper. GenuineNOS on ebay usually has the original switch with correct bracket:

The aftermarket/copies emgos can be modified too but on the chopper since it mounts on the framerail I would use an original or make a strap that clears the rivet....for less paint damage at least. They are fine on a BC style and have a tight budget, but the rivet end would end up digging into the frame, damage will be done no matter what but less the better

Original is loose, On of the markusmade "ghetto fabulous" cheapskate altered switches I did is mounted on the plate, note the difference in the U bracket shape on the switch side.

Does anyone have a working diagram for the Bonanza Taillight with Brakelight Switch.
