Save Lucas Rita parts from the scrap bin!
Al Osborn at AO Services has been in touch to tell us that the company has inherited the remains of the Mistral Engineering parts used for manufacture of the Lucas Rita ignition kits. These include models such as the Norton Commando, Triumph Twins and Triples, Yamaha XS650, Moto Guzzi, BMW and others. Al says: “Unfortunately the need for most of these parts has waned, so we are about to scrap most of them. There are pick-up covers and amplifier brackets and a number of shafts with the traditional magneto taper and thread on them.”
If these parts are of interest to you, please get in touch with Al on alan@aloz.org.uk as soon as possible. Al also adds that AO Services can still repair the Rita amplifier, still a very viable ignition system.
