[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 189719, member: 98"] ok ive got the wiring all hooked up and working ...had a few problems though ....the reserve lighting unit had to be bypass ...and the info out there to do it is not clear enough to get right ...and it seems all this time with this bike ..ive had the bypass hooked up wrong ... i think this was causing a slight and weak drain on the battery all the time and if you went awhile before riding your bike the battery would be dead....problem i was having is there was no power going to the tail and brakes lights in the rear of bike ....so when i figured witch wire had to powered to give power to the rear lights ...it wasnt hooked up ...threar power wire is blue but has a brown collar on it ...there is also blue and brown wire ...there also and thats what i had hooked up ...so when i traded those two wires i got power to the rear and all things work as it should ... not only did i make this wiring mistake ...blacklander did also in the set up of the bypass he did for the new harness use in hooch .... anyway it is very easy to get things screwed up on the bypass wiring... been on several rides now bike running great ...and i think the wiring is all figured out now ...want to thank V and backlander for there parts in getting a new wiring harness set up in the hooch bike :hi: :good: [/QUOTE]
