You may or may not know, here in the U.K., many European and other countries, the wearing of protective head gear is enforced by law.
It may appear to some, to be a cissy thing to have to do.
However, none compliance really can be a 'NO BRAINER'.
Sorry!!

Hi tc34
I also have the 'Miler 125'.
I'm located in the U.K. and have found the following supplier: - wemoto.com
Copy and paste this web link to find out what they can supply: -

Good luck with your 'Miler' projects.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
My Sincere Thanks, go to both Carter and in particular to Karl, for your input and support in coming up with both
ideas and suggestions to resolve my problem.
After removing the battery again: -
I took the switch apart, just enough to stop anything flying off and gave it a good spray with a maintenance spray.
Then set about all the 'push in block connectors'. Taking each one I could find apart and giving them a spray before
reconnecting them.
Next I remembered the 'Relay' that Karl mentioned, it was just floating around under the front cover.
I found that the rubber retaining band had fallen apart, so I set about re-fixing the relay in place, using double sided tape and a cable tie.
I left this all for around 30 hours to thoroughly dry out.
Refitted the battery turned the key, pulled the left hand brake lever and the stop light came on and off hesitantly.
As a result of the above, I checked the 'earth' wire connection on the rear left hand side of scooter frame and noticed the nut would not fully tighten.
So I snapped off the welded stud, drilled out the remainder. Cleaned off the painted area and replaced the stud with a nut/bolt and spring washer.
Re-connected the battery and BINGO!!!
Stop light worked with a steady strong light and the starter motor fired up like it did when new.
Thank you both once again, for holding my hand through the trials and tribulations of this investigation.
(Its great when it all comes together!) Talking of which, I now have the laborious job of refitting all the body covers.

Hi Karl - Thank You once more.
That's a pretty comprehensive list of suggestions and will take me a while to work through,
as I will only be able to look at it for a short while today, then I will be otherwise occupied
for a few days.
By the way, the electrical block I have in my hand, has no diagram on it and I said it had a 'Black' plug,
when it actually has a 'Green' one (Must be my old brain).
I'll bare in mind your comments when I reconnect it and hunt around for any other relays.
Thanks again.
Keith.

Hi Karl - In answer to your questions: -
1) Its a Kymco Miler 125, otherwise known as a Super Dink 125.
2) I'm located in Hullbridge, Essex, UK.
Still having problems. And still of the opinion the left hand brake switch is O.K, as I can hear a slight click when I pull the brake leaver.
And when I put a circuit tester on the right hand brake switch I get the same results, and that ones O.K.
Have been looking at what I think is a 'Relay' just at the lower end of the cable loom, behind the front cover as you suggested.
(Kymco Part No: 030728) Other identifying mark on it: - KKC4-9 D106 ? (Its a black block with 5 wires from a black plug into it at one end only).
I've no idea how to test it.
Cant seem to find any KYMCO listings of this item number anywhere. So have given everything a bit of a spray.
You say you may have a couple of further suggestions I could try, fire away!
If not, I guess I'll put it all back together again and see if its still the same.

Thanks guys for your prompt and helpful replies.
Have slightly modified my original enquiry, but the outcome is still the same.
I put the front covers back on (Painful) re-connected the battery, still no go.
Will remove covers again and make the checks you suggest.
Thank you so much once again: FKA.

Applying the rear brake lever - Will not enable start up and the rear stop light does not come on.
Applying Front brake lever - The start up enabler & rear stop light 'Work O.K'.
Have checked the switch at the rear brake lever with a meter and seems to work o.k. when the lever is pulled.
(Wire colours Blue/Brown and Green/Yellow).
Hardly any mention of these wires on the circuit diagram in the 'Grand Dink Manual' that I
have and it's difficult to track them as they disappear into the loom.
Found Blue/Brown wire at the end of loom, it goes into the back of the fuse box. (Fuses all OK)
Only Green/Yellow, Brown and the Green earth go to stop light.
Any ideas would be appreciated, as I'm not too familiar with the electrical components and their locations.
