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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Then it should be a C harness.

    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.

    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.

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

    As far as I know the TSCU on the E has a bunch of wires going to it.It's one of those auto cancel things the Japanese tried.the 78 E was one of the first ones out and are a PITA from all accounts.The 2 wire flasher make this a C harness.

    Test it, put it on and try it - no harm there as you can change the R/R out at the panel as needed
