I posted this in the simplified wiring diagram thread but figured that was the wrong place.
After a busy year so far getting married and moving to South Carolina, I'm getting really close to finishing my bike. Its literally coming down to the wire. sorry, bad joke I was wondering if you guys could help me figure out a couple things with my modified wiring diagram.
my goals:
1. kick start only
2. no dummy lights
3. combo regulator rectifier with spliced white/yellow for constant charging
4. keep turn signals so I can ride at night (led)
5. possibly replace ignition switch with toggle switch (the ignition switch got lost in the move but I'm sure I could buy one on ebay)
6. simplification for ease of service
7. headlight always on (led) thanks spark moto!
8. convert all lights to led
Assumptions: (please correct me if I'm wrong)
use 14 awg wire for main battery wire and battery ground.
use 18 awg wire for pretty much everything else.
Questions:
1. what is the light just above the front right turn signal in the wiring diagram? (brown wire leading to it)
2. Can I remove it? maybe I already have? ha
3. is a kill switch (separate from ignition or main switch) really needed?
4. why is there a ground wire going from the left rear turn signal to the tail light? does that attach to the frame?
Here's my modified wiring diagram so far. You can see I have not replaced the ignition switch with a toggle switch yet.
