Hey guys a while ago i posted a thread about my non stock fork tubes that are longer then stock ones. My bike is an 81 special with the 35mm tubes. If anyone has a set of standard ones they want to of ...

Hey, nice work, bike looks great. Just wondering where you got your solo seat from and how you mounted it? Cheers.

[quote]So, you said the lights work when you hook up 12v to the blue/yellow, but not when you hook the blue/black to the blue/yellow, is that correct?

Haha im a league man myself but still looking forward to the GF. Should be a great one! As for the diagrams, i think ill end up redoing the whole wiring system, "simplified". Just wanted to get the li ...

yep have all the standard controls, Hi and low and dip switch, Lights on and off. They all worked but I have this funny feeling the High and Low beam had been swapped around? Ill have a better look to ...

The high beam doesn't work either.

Yeah mine has points and is an 81. I think, ha. The 79 diagram does look more like the one on the bike.

Now that I think about it the light would work with the bike off. Meaning no Safety relay. T ...

Am I right in saying this is the rec and reg? Rec on the right side and reg on the left? And if so to redo the wiring system should go from this diagram? http://650rider.com/index.php?name=coppermine& ...

Hey guys, ill get straight to it. The Headlight stoped working on my 81 special. I have read through most of the headlight posts. Going off info fomr RG, i tested the Blue/Yellow wire from the RLD to ...

Thanks for that john, not 100% sure I know what you mean by the following [quote]dimple the long rod and push lever short rod..... to keep the rod aligned when engaged......should save the blushing an ...

Think I have figured out what the PO has done. He or she has obviouly wanted to lenghten them and has just got longer 35mm tubes. He kept the original springs and damper rod, and just inserted a metal ...

Hey Yamaman, what your saying makes a real lot of sense. I did try the rocking trick but was a bit scared of doing the whole heman thing and breaking something! I haven't filed yet, so might just pry ...
