Brown comes from the fuse box +12V, one red is switched 12V for ingnition, lights, etc, the other is parking lights with the first red switched off...

I've used a variety of the Suzi switches. The only ones I know of to avoid are the ones for two strokes that can short wires in OFF pos and someyimes have the lighting switching from the key. As long as it has OFF and ON I'm pretty sure you can use it. Regardless what you fit I advise using it to switch a mini-relay so that all your power doesn't go through the switch.

The answer is yes, the Suzuki GT750 switch is a suitable replacement for the switch on a Laverda 3C, 3CL, Jota. In fact, it's probably an identical switch apart from the 4-pin plug. You'll have to snip off the 4-pin plug and fit some spade connectors.

My original connectors are long since gone on my RGA, but if you want to keep your wiring harness original, you can buy the correct connectors to match the original harness here:

Then again, depending on what's wrong with the switch, they can often be repaired.
