So here goes nothing, I hope this turns out like I had planned .
The idea is to have something sporty looking and I love the look of the old cafe racers
so that is what I am going to build.
This is what I started with
A 1975 Gl1000 starts but runs real rough wont idle the wiring had been hacked up and only the headlight and tail light were left working. No rust on the bike though thats good.
This is what's left of the wiring. PO's suck what goes through some peoples minds?
This is my solution to this problem. All wires are marked every 4 inches as to what they are.
While trolling through various sites I found these
Vintage Connections factory connectors will definitely make things go easier
Good thing to because this is all that is left of the entire wiring :shock: :shock: harness
The headlight ears were missing as were the turn signals so I chose these
Much cleaner and tighter look in my opinion. I got the same blinkers for the back
mounted them on the frame where the grab rail once was.
I am also swapping over to LED's all round except for the headlight.
The flasher pulses instead of flashing (think knight rider) all bulbs came from
Super Bright LED's.
That's all for now, save some for next time
:salute:
