    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Ok, I am rewiring my harness being it is now a rigid frame for one, two, all wiring is going through the main neck.
Any who... as I am re-drawing the schematic to fit what I have left, I ran into two parts that escaping me....

What is the “Red Color Tube”?

Edited: I am pretty sure that the the “O/R” and the “Gr” are tied together as they exit this connector and then they to the “Y/W”.
Secondly, the “W/R” & “W/G” are jumper’d on the backside of the connector.



I may have more in depth questions... but I am hoping to get an answer to what it is and go from there.

For a little more clear... the O/R that “dead ends” into he connector; between the Y and the G.

Thanks.

Ok... believe I figuring out a little more...
From pic 1, the W/R (from Regulator) and W/G (from generator) should be able to just tie closer to them instead of all they way up by the handlebar switch.
I have traced the O/R back to Fuse #4 in the fuse block.
From the fuse block, O/R first tees off and runs to a deal ends at the connector in pic 2 then runs up to the connector in pic 1, ties on the other side the Gr & Y/W.
Gr feeds power to one side on the ignition switch and then onto Br feeding the tail light. Gr feeds power to the License plate, speedo. Y/W feeds the dimmer.

With all this said... my presumption is that as long as I make O/R “keyed” power to run the before mentioned items, that’s 2-3 wires I don’t have to run separately?

I am using a different schematic. Its a B&W out of the GS650G manual. Sorry... the pic posted was not discernible.
It doesn?t show that wire going through the light control and back to the Generator.

From your pic, not sure what the ?Lighting switch? is.
Thanks though.
 
This is where I am at up to now.
A little cleaning up and adding some relays. Keeping the amps down through the switches.
Edited... This is my latest rendition of the wiring schematic going into the bike.
