Today I commenced the disassembly process. The flywheel came off after a fight. Now that I can see the innards I am sort of baffled, amazed, and worried. This thing has a complicated magneto, with separate circuit to provide some low voltage lighting, and what looks like access for a remote kill switch. I knew it had a light switch socket under the broken advance lever, but was not aware of the rest.
You can see the extra windings on the inside of the coil heels. Some sort of extra condenser thingy too!

Here you can see the sockets for the remote ignition wiring and lights and the under mag light bulb socket!
