That's an old CG125 clone. You can now expand your search criteria for wiring diagrams. The reality is that anyone on this forum with a CG-based engine will have a similar harness, except for minor differences like AC vs. DC CDI ignition.
If it interests you, you could pop a CG250 motor in that frame, and no one would be the wiser.

That is the plan long term but I want to finish the aesthetic work so it looks like a 60s café racer, get it running and back on the road first before looking for a 250 engine.

That's the perfect bike to start with. Like Humanbeing says, the alloy wheels aren't like the old CG, but those are easily changed. For inspiration, use Google Chrome, go to www.taobao.com and type in café racer; allow it to translate automatically. You'll be amazed by the stuff that is designed for a CG125.

Finally had chance to get out side and take some photos of the bike in its current condition.

Had a productive day managed to pull the old loom off the bike.

Fitted a new fused bus box and got that all wired in to the switches

Wired the switches to a distribution bar to make fault finding easier when the bike is completed (see attached photo haven't taken one of it on the bike yet as I couldn't feel my fingers)

Just leaves the reg/rec stator and the CDI unit but need some help with the CDI unit anyone know where the wires go on the CDI unit as this is where the extension lead wires were.

Will add photos of the fuse box and distribution box next time I'm working on the bike.
