Wilsons Sandbox

Adding another switch ? Can we also call this another "fail point" ? Adding a jumping on the sidestand is pretty easy, or just scotchlock the wires together. ( check first, not sure on the sidestand) As for the Clutch bypass I made small jump wire fitted with the mini spade connectors and pushed the wires out of the block and jumped them together and put the block back together. Seems I got the info at Marks Most Excellent list of Mods homepage. Dooden A15 Green Ape

Alan, they do not go to any of the connectors up front (I don't think - I don't think there are any two wire connectors there. They run to a two wire connector (I don't know where, I haven't traced it). The two wires (brown & green/white) go to the connector, the brown then goes directly to ground from the connector as a black/yellow wire. The green/white continues through the connector and connects to the diode unit which is on the right side of the steering head above the CDI unit. You need a Clymer which has got a great color wiring diagram. If you want it, I'll scan it and send it to you.
