    Mockup of electrical changes

    I'm mocking up changes to the left side electrical panel on my 1980 GS750E.

    My intent is to install my SH775, convert to a blade type fuse block,
    and install a relay to keep most of those amps from being routed up to the ignition switch and back to the fuse box.

    My latest version is in the pic below.
    I think that version will minimize cutting and pasting the original wiring harness.

    If I put the starter relay in upside down the original wires will reach it with no mods.
    So my question is: Any issues with installing the starter relay upside down,
    other than accessing the relay connections?

              What you're doing is a very common modification. It should work out fine.
