Hey all, I am building my first bike and i'm on to the fun part, wiring it up.
Although I am mechanically inclined I don't have much experience with wiring at all and figuring this out for the first time is a uphill battle, so any advice or help is appreciated.
The bike is a 1980 GS550 and I am using a M unit to wire it up. This caused a bit of confusion because I have to run some of the wires a bit different than stock, but after some research with the oem wire diagram I came up with this. This is just for the ignition-starter-charging too. I will figure out the controls and lights separately once I know this is right
My concerns so far are if that is the correct way to wire from the starter/kill switch to the igniter and coils, the oem wiring differs there because of the oem fuse box, and whether to start with a 15 or 30 amp fuse off the battery, ive seen people use both.
