Powerdynamo, information needed for new flywheel systems

For projecting and manufacturing a new ignition/lighting unit, to replace an external flywheel magneto (e.g. Bosch, Motoplat, SEM or Kokosan), we need to know the following: (You will find additional information via the links in the text below)
What kind of motorcycle?	make (please photo of type plate) year of manufacture engine number 2- or 4-stroke, number of cylinders displacement (cc) and compression ratio electric starter? where does this starter has the engine been modifeied after market
It's important to know, what you need:	ignition and light (for very old and/or small bikes see also our 6V/18W material) ignition only lights only
To better understand what has to be done and to make you a detailed offer we will need a few photos:	view at the engine from both sides close-up view of the original ignition/generator (please not only from direct side, also a little from front/rear so that one can see wire exit close-up view of engine area without the original unit, (overview and from sude and front, so that we can see the fixing points of the system pictures please not only close-ups, but also overviews, better a picture more than one to less.
data for the original lighting/ignition system	inscriptions on the rotor diameter, height and weight of the rotor diameter of stator plate (the plate that carries the coils) how many fastening screws and what size for the stator plate are there any added functions to the stock ignition (throttling in speed, rev limiter, powervalve etc) is anything screwed to the flywheel (rotor), such as sprocket, fan, pulley, tachodrive etc) in what direction does the rotor turn, clockwise or anticlockwise very important: what is the distance between rotor and base plate as per sketch here Are there some references in the user's manual? originally 6 or 12V? alternating or direct current or mixed voltage? has there been a battery? Horn is for direct current or alternating current? If alternating, can this be sensibly replaced by a modern DC one? legible copy of the original wire diagram
A few points tend to be easily forgotten and than cause trouble. So we need to know	Does the oil seal rise above the bottom level of the system's stator plate? Is there a opening in the plate or the elavation of the plate for the oilseal?. How to fix the flywheel (screw or nut and what dimensions of same)? How is the space situation between flywheel and engine cover
Once we have got all this information (maybe after a few additional questions)	we will make you a detailed offer
If you accept this offer, we will need your stock (original) generator/ignition system	to take dimensions (We will not temper with it in any way, you get it back as it was) please also add the fastening elements, such as fastening screws for base plate and nut or screw for rotor
