    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.

What is this red wire for? where does it go to?
 
Don't know exactly, but it looks like it should be connected to the positive terminal on the battery...

Is that "single" fuse block stock??
 
Well, if it were me, I would connect it under the nut where the red "positive battery cable" connects on the starter solenoid. it is used to put power to that auxiliary fuse.
 
is that auxl. fuse stock or did some add this, I just got this bike, just trying to figure it out.
 
Can you follow the wire to see what's at the other end?

It appears to be the power feed to the AUX fuse (by the way, the single AUX fuse is standard on the '79 bikes. From '80-on, it was part of the main fuse panel.). If so, it should connect to the battery side of the starter solenoid, underneath that black insulator that has the battery wire in it. Hikermikem suggested it should go to the positive side of the battery. If you route it to the starter solenoid, it will do the same thing, but keep the number of connections at the battery terminals down to a minimum.
 
Yeah what they said.. connects to the battery side of the solenoid.
