Re: Automotive style ignition switch? it looks like it will.. off, run and start. it says 3 position and the one i got says 4 but i'm not sure what the fourth one is. the one i bought works for sure, my friend also used that one when he simplified his

Re: Automotive style ignition switch? here's the switch; http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002FP886Q/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 wiring diagrams; i used the first one but the others should work too...

yep, i got it set up on my CB 750. there was a simple wiring diagram somewhere that shows how to do it.

do you still have the Gimps?

yea? i'll have to look at the wiring diagram and see if i can figure out which wire supplys the power.

I checked the grounding last night and it seemed good. damn. And i got power from the ignition wire. could it be bad spark units? bad rectifier?

i know for sure that i'm not getting power to the coils with ignition on. i'm pretty sure i checked that the ignition from the switch is getting power but not if it still gets it during start. i'll double check tonight. thanks for the tip

so i put on my Junior electrician outfit and grabbed all the spaghetti (wires) and put this thing together over the weekend and almost got it working. it turns over but no spark. The spark was super weak before i started but now nothing. I put in new coils but that didn't change things. the...

Very cool looking.. nice and clean.

i ended up buying a 4 pole marine style switch from amazon for $16 shipped; http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002FP886Q/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details it should be here before the weekend so i think i'll put on my junior electrician suit and give it a shot. Also i found a "bare bones" wiring...

cool.. that makes it easy..

thanks for the tip.. is there an easy way to tell or do you just have to take it apart and measure it?

thanks.. looks like there's quite a few out there. A piece of braided line could make it look cooler too.

thanks.. didn't even think about the angles when i bought this one. i might run it for now and look into the remote M/C.. any tips on which bikes to look at for these?

i just got a new M/C that sits on the bars at about a 30 degree angle (bars tilt down) with reservoir opening up so that if the fluid level was low it would pump air into the hose. would this work if i bled the brakes while it was level, filled to the highest level then mounted back on the...

thanks Yogi.. i'll check it out

it's a good day for Chowder.. can you point me to a post in cb1100f.net? i did a quick search.. otherwise i'll look into it more later.

thanks for the tips.. i just got this bike a month ago and looking into the possibilities.. there's an 18" rear on ebay with disk for $55 buy it now price

Where you ever able to make these work? i'm thinking of trying them on a '81 750c and was curious to the work involved. Right now i have the comstar 16" rear (with drum) and 19" front.

thanks.. i don't mind the way the front looks but the 16" rear is a little to sqwished for the design (in my opinion)
