    Both the C and the EC models use a two wire flasher.

      OK Dale then where do the other wires go?Are they near the flash unit? Am I right that this is a C harrness?As I see nothing else close to the flasher I'm guessing it is.

          Sorry Greg, I've a bit busy this evening trying to catch up on different things. I'll go out in the garage in a bit, get a TSCU and photograph it's connectors for you to look at.

            No problem Dale.I don't see any extra connections from the one that was on the bike.Compared them side by side to be sure.

              Then it should be a C harness.

                OK I FINALLY did something with the "new" harness.It came with all the stock seperate regulator and rectifier and a better than what I had fusebox.I was thinking of not using the 750 blade type fuse box and the Hoda reg/rec.Common sense took over and I grafted the 750 and Honda conectors to the harness.

                  The second time around on primer.A bit more sanding and probaly another coat.Then sand again.A coat of better primer surfacer after that.Dupli-color this time,learned my lesson after the last disasterPick up some more Poppy Red to.

                  Think I'll paint this up in the red to,wouldn't be a Greg bike without a fairingWhen inquring a about paint for Yeller I asked about 2K in a can,we can get it here

                      Well the tank is in primer sealer,finally.Did more work than I thought it was going to take but now it's smooth!Had a payment problem with the harness that is now resolved.Never doing a mail exchange of funds if I can help it.

                        So I was sanding the primer on the under seat trim,it's cracking where I repaired it with the ABS slurry.Guess it's better now than after I repainted.

                            I didn't quit. I've been distracted by the KDX project and the 85 750EF that's my DR needs painting.

                                Not to hijack the thread but checked out that Hannigan Fairing Company's website and they are not taking orders until December so call us back then

                                Certainly a tough choice whether to ramp up production to fullfill orders quicker or hold the line and risk p&ssing off potential customers who want product now
