Indicator switch end piece

The plastic end bit of my indicator switch has disintegrated, see attached. I believe it’s a Suzuki switch but looks pretty much the same as NDenso on my GTL. Does anyone know where/if I can find the end bit? I’ve looked at a few Suzuki switches from the era, but not found one that has the bit held on by the tiny screw. Thanks

I also need the turn signal piece and fashioned a temporary one from plastic scrap and a cotter pin. I thought these ND pods were Honda but apparently they are Suzuki-
 
Hey Piet, what's that little semi-circular thing with what looks like gear teeth on it? I don't recall seeing one of those in Suzuki switch gear before.
Maybe it's just my memory failing.

Indicator knob, as others have pointed out. Laverda used the earlier version, your pic shows the later type as used by Suzuki (exclusively?).

It's not quite as nice as the original, but does the job. One of these days I may get around to tweaking the design and round the edges a bit, the resin print should turn out quite OK.

How many decades, and there is always something new to learn. Blinker switch knobs for $100, Mr Jeopardy.

Thread 'Indicator knob'

My Mirage owning mate has had a number of indicator knobs 3D printed in black plastic. These are a direct copy of the ND type and include a countersunk grub screw.
As you can imagine the set up costs were considerable. He's asking £15.00 +P+P shipped in the UK.
I've fitted one to my Jota and it's identical to the forty year old brittle plastic one which broke.
If you want one I'll give you his contact details, DM me.

Cheers,
Vince.

The 3d print files are shared in this site, I made some and am very happy with the results, really can't tell they are not originals.

There are designs kindly shared in Resources here by our friend Sami in Finland "cape" for the three knobs on the left ND switch.

Not commercially, at cost, happy to make some more if there's demand on my visits to the shared 3D printer facility, they weigh next to nothing so postage shouldn't be too much shipped to to you from USA (to date no tariffs outbound).

PM me if interested.
