Liam, it's a Wipac SO781 (lighting)or SO782 (ignition) switch that you require and they are used on many British small capacity machines especially BSA Bantams. Both ignition and lighting swiches are interchangeable only the markings on the knobs differ. Try www.britishspares.com
They list them at $57.50 NZ Dollars
