Can someone explain relays to me? I'm new at electrical, with the exception of a physics class I took in college. I'm rewording y bike and need to know where I should use relays, how to buy them and how to wire them

I'm gonna bring this one back. I've been studying some various diagrams and looking at the way the bike is currently wired. I've made a few changes and am hoping for some feedback/ approval. The one question I have is this: Can I remove the "light checker" or "reserve lighting module" circuit...

Sounds good, thanks!

Most of the schematics I've looked at had it capped so I did.

Any pros or cons besides simplicity to one or the other? Thanks again!

I guess I should have mentioned this, but yes, it is a '75 XS650. I just noticed that second wire from the right turn signal looks like it goes back to the switch but it doesn't. It goes to the rear. Where would the yellow wire go if I were to use it? As it sits now, I believe it is capped...

Okay, thanks. I moved it and added another one to each of the power lines between the Left / Right switch. My other question is about the Br wire coming from the reg/ rec. Should that tap into the brown wire leaving the ignition switch? I copied that bit from another schematic and was unsure...

This is my first attempt at wiring anything. Hopefully someone can look over my schematic and give me some suggestions and advice. How's it look overall

A lot of guys make a seat mold out of foam blocks glued together and then tape and fiberglass it. The rest really depends on your capability. You can buy most anything, but I'm more of the mind that doing it yourself it more satisfying, unique, etc.

Anyone ever use pistons from the ebay seller cruzin image? They come with rings, clips and pins. I've heard nothing bad with any of it except the clips. However, I have not heard much overall. Anyone have any experience? By the way, they are for an XS650...

http://www.xs650.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24372&highlight=turbo There was another really nice turbo build on this website but I can't find it now. Some guy built a race bike with a turbo on it.

You could run Avgas (100LL) in it. No ethanol.

What kind of goggles are you all wearing with 3/4 helmets? Is my only option Halcyon or do cheaper ones work well too? Does anyone wear these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Halcyon-COMPACT-Motorcycle-Aviator-Flying-Goggles-/281015228551?pt=UK_Helmets_Headwear_Goggles&hash=item416dd01887 It...
