Wire and bolt

[Solipsist]

Ok. Wiring sucks. I have 78 cb750k and I am wiring it back up, old harness was fried. I have a green wire that is connected with a bolt. I have no idea where it goes. Any clues?

I think those are for the front turn signals, inside the headlight bucket.

The nut itself works with the bolt that holds the headlight bucket to the bike. The wire coming off of it is used as a ground for the lighting.

Hold on, I'll go pop the headlight out of my '78 CB750K and take a pic...

You guys are awesome thank you.

Here's the nut...

And a basic idea of where the wire plugs into the harness...

Also, if you put a dab of adhesive on the inside part of the nut (you can see where there was some there already), it'll hold it in place. So, if need be, you can remove/reinstall the bolt from the bucket/ear without having to pull the headlight out

Thanks Redbird.

No problem
My CB750 is mostly stock, so if you have any other questions or need reference pics, just holler
