Retrieved my LS3 from one of my kids place where its been unused for a couple of years or more. Gassed it up & sounds good & went good too in my 100 yard dash down the farm drive. Not sure what to do with it as sort of promised it to someone ages ago but still looks good in my shed haha. Cheap Rego after 40 years as registration has been kept on hold. Sorry if i've posted this before.but couldn't find where.


Second link below is a few pics.

Sweet!

Initially I was expecting a twin, but it would appear that the LS3 (single) wasn't a continuation of the LS2 (twin) model line.

Here in the UK, I think that the first 100cc single we got was the RS100.

Not really an update as such but i often put my 2 cents worth in on how to fix unusual electrical problems & now it's all coming back to bite me!!.
My LS3 i briefly ran today with a good battery but the flashers "don't".
They try, & if i rev it hard they'll flash.
Neutral light is weak too unless revved. But brake light is 100% even without the motor running.
Bypassed the flasher unit & still dodgy just operating as lights only but are weak until revved.
I'm guessing there's bad earths or fizzed switch connections so i'll go look soon.
Battery lights up bulbs on the bench good 'as'.

Heading probably doesn't make sense but not sure how to change it. Just searched for an old post to add too now I have a problem to sort. Hate electrical wiring issues.

Noted the service manual labeled "combined" 100cc bikes has the wiring diagram in it on page 137. Off to work for now...
