Running without battery

I have a G12 with magneto and dynamo and would like to run the engine without the battery fitted. What do I do with the battery terminal wires?

Nothing!......unplug the 'F' & 'D' wires off the end of the dynamo.
Good idea to remove the two pick up brushes, or better still, pull off the dynamo pinion to reduce unneccessary wear on the armature.

You can also remove the dyno & fit the blanking plate used by the competition twins.
Cheers, Don.
