    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.

My plan is too use paint.net to clean the wiring diagram into "layers" that pertain to the wiring harness. eg. (coils & ignition, minimum requirement to have a running bike) & (Charging Circuit) & (Lights) & (gear & idiot lights)

The idea being that if i have a charging issue, i can have an uncluttered drawing of just the required parts involved. Or if i have no spark, then i have that required diagram. I will do the stock drawing, then add the mods advised as seperate drawings.

It will basically stem down to, If i am stuck in the bush & have 2m of wire, screw driver & wire strippers, i will be able to rewire the bike to get you home.

My problem is i do not know how to "Break" the layers up. I have attached a rough draft. Pardon my attachment, as its the first time i have done so on a forum.

If some one is willing to advise me, i will do the leg work. And also if i could get a very good scan of the drawing, as a template.

You also need a voltmeter (or at least a 12 volt test light) in addition to the other tools.

I don't know paint, but could tell you how to do that stuff in autocad ...
but what you could do in probably any paint type program is a "save as" with another name, (for ex "ignition.bmp") and then just delete/erase everything not related. They would not be layers on the same drawing, but different dwgs.

All you really need are the ignition system and maybe the charging and possibly headlight systems. All the rest "could" be left till you get home in an emergency.
