Back to the question market for a minute - Would the 84-87 Interstate harnesses be the same? There’s a couple on FleaBay but they’re not for the 1984 so my curiosity is peaked a bit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The folks at the local Napa aren’t the brightest cookies in the box around here. I’ll likely end up ordering one and just being done with it honestly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Again, the key is finding the right relay...two auto parts stores down and the only 4 prong relays are the ones for flashers, not for “regular” use [emoji21] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ha! I’ll cut it out no doubt and use those fancy 3m connectors to close it off. I went by the auto parts store earlier and could only find “flasher” relays which I didn’t buy because they’re not what I was looking for and the lady behind the counter wasn’t the brightest crayon in the box....so...

Here’s the wiring on the 87... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The way I see things and it could be different or model specific since this is a 1987 is The relay gets its trigger from the ignition coil/control unit which is or should be a blue with yellow tracer and it looks like it gets power directly from the regulator/rectifier via a black wire which...

Nope ha! I kinda sat back and let the post unfold a bit. I need to do a bit more research on the signal in and out before I go try to wire one up and cause more damage than good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Evening folks - Has anyone found an alternate relay for the fuel pump that works by some odd chance? I haven’t been able to locate one for the 1987 I’ve got and each time the relay is jumped at the plug it’ll work and when it’s hooked into the relay the pump won’t work at all.... I’ve called...

That’s my thinking as well and while I’ve got a bunch of Aspy parts, I don’t want to convert this one over when that’s not the bike it was supposed to be in the first place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s an Understatement 101 [emoji21][emoji21][emoji21] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s partially correct - it came from someone who totally stripped the bike down to the frame all the plastics were off and had a partial harness in it from a standard then a full harness off an Aspy. I think I’m just going to buy an interstate harness and get it over with honestly Sent from...

Not sure why I can’t drop this in the 1200 forum but it is what it is. Now that my LTD is running and moving for the most part I’m moving onto a 1984 Interstate that I snagged a few weekends back. Apparently this bike has the wiring harness in it from an Aspy and not sure of what year it’s out...

This bike got a new fuel relay and now the carbs will be rebuilt. Starts when choked out but won’t otherwise Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s the one clear down in the forks ‘eh? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My shop manual doesn’t show a supplemental for the 1987 so I thought I’d drop in here for a second. The fuel pump is my issue with this bike. Given the minuscule changes from year to year it’s pretty well confused me. The relay for it in theory sits in the same place as the 85, next to the...
