W Wirings: Wards Riverside

Wards Riverside Wiring: Mongomery Wards in the late 1960’s sold a full line of motorcycles and mopeds made in Italy by Benelli (and also early 1960’s mopeds made in France by Motobecane). This is the 50cc sport bike model FFA-14003, a 4-speed foot shift manual clutch motorcycle.

Even back then, they used the ignition source coil ground to operate the brake light. Ground the green wire first to get spark.
