    No Headlight or Tail Light

    I recently lost my head and tail lights on my '79 GS750E. Bulbs are fine. Is there a fuse in that harness somewhere? Other thoughts?
    '79 GS750 - 4th and current ride...first since 1983
    '73 CB350 - 1st ride
    '76 GT750 - 2nd ride - the "water buffalo" - sold to buy an engagement ring
    '79 RD400F Daytona Special - 3rd ride, the last of the street legal US 2-strokes - sold to buy a house

    I have had this '79 750E since virtually new (Feb. '80/1,000 miles) and, besides a few added extra ground wires and some zip ties, it is absolutely stock with zero electrical problems and over 180,000 miles.
    Look under your left side cover and it should look close to this...






    Hope that helps.

      It helps a lot as far as knowing what it should look like. I'll take a peak after work later today. Thanks!

        Burning a bulb or two is often the first sign of overcharging. Check it out before the expensive stuff goes.

          The 10 amp headlight fuse was blown. Easy fix....just hope it was a random thing! Thx.
