Honda just didn't engineer these bikes to be tricked out with extra lights. A few LED's won't hurt but no way will an 83 Wing push the power you want and keep the battery charged. In town idling will pull it down but once giving any amount of revs the battery will be okay with only 2 lights. Kind of the Achilles heal of the old wings.The three yellow wires are an issue on all makes of bikes I have a Suzuki and a Yamaha as well and have had to repair those connections on those two bikes as well. Get rid of the connector and solder the wires together it's the only way to reduce the resistive nature of the connector and prevent failure. You will need some good flux to make the solder take. The wires are old and most likely oxidized and will need good flux to solder then after clean the excess flux off the new connection to prevent the flux from producing more oxidization. Tape or heat shrink them real good to keep moisture outI have been seeing Hi intensity LED driving lights coming out recently but they are a bit pricey still but coming down as the technology developsCheersTom</blockquote>
