on the down side ....im missing a carb button on one of the carbs like the 1000 have .....also the horn wiring ,horns and even the button on the hand grip is missing also .....the lights wiring for rear is all cut and not hooked up the turn signals are not on but i have them and the front headlight ring and stuff is gone as it had a vetter fairing on it ....theres a leather cover over the light bucket havnt even looked in there yet .....the stock pegs ar gone too ...iwill proably put the foot boards on the 83 and and put the stock 83 pegs on the 77 and see how i like them on the angry dresser ...they were actualy made for a 1100 anyway and didnt fit right on the 77 ......

Mail them both to me I'll see if they can be fixed.

i got seratic spark today on the 77 today but not good spark .....i think wires caps resisters and possibly condenser not working right typical 30+ wings problems with ignition ....so im going to go dyna now as i have three sets and a set of dyna coils too ....thats on the to do list for tomarrow ...im encourage that the electric is getting to the coils tho and im hoping the dyna is going to work great as it did for the mongrel ....just plowing along :builder: :laptop: :builder: it was a big plus having the colored wiring layouts in the tech section :good: :yes: :mrgreen:
OP
OP
just got done taking the heat sheild and thermostat out of the 77 what a job ....now at least i can get to the coils and stuff to change to 3ohm dyna ...and also to the carbs easy ..... :mrgreen:

Did you get the wiring sorted out?
There was a dual capacitor and a 2 capacitor setup on the 1000, not sure which years they apply to but the info is in the wiring diagrams in the gallery.

On my '83 I did a bypass of all the bike wiring with jumpers and wire nuts to run the 1000 ignition. Maybe try that Joe?
OP
OP
im going to dan ...i need to hear it ...so i know what ive got in the lower end ...everything so far has been all good signs ....but im some what worried when i seen that the ignition was backwards ...as in when the 12 cylinders were suppose to fire the 34 cylinders were firing .....honda had the wrong colored rings on the wires .....it just shocked me when i figured it out
if i could find a front center stand to fit my 75 i would be on it like ugly on ape.
