Right, I have just finished another session, although it is more of a continuation of Friday evening's. This time, I was working without Dad's supervision, now I know what I'm looking at. I removed the ammeter, ready for fixing separately, and took off the oil tank so I could access the ignition switch. Then, I tested every wire on the whole bike against a circuit diagram. Everything is connected as it should be, although there is one broken joint and one wire that needs replacing.
It is a testament to how simple and yet effective old British engineering was, that I can even do this at all. On a modern bike, one would have no hope of even finding the wires, let alone being able to check that everything is connected correctly. Here's a picture of the bike with the oil tank removed as well.
