Been Around the Block
Several months ago I bought a 1978 Bonneville T140E. It ran strong but it was hard to start (kick only). I rode it to work a few times when I first got it but then I lost a muffler and it started leaking profusely from the brakes and forks. So it has sat in my garage. Today I cleaned the carbs in an ultrasonic cleaner (they were pretty clean and seem to have newish o-rings). I had pulled battery several months ago and now I can't remember how it is suppose to be connected. There are three eye loop connections.
One is a heavier gauge wire leading to the wiring harness. I'm assuming this connects to positive post.
One is fused and leads to the rectifier. I'm assuming this connects to positive post.
And one has two wires--one leading to right coil and the other leading to the tail light socket. I'm assuming this connects to negative post.
