I got ahold of an 81 xs 650 and i'm in the process of gettig it back on the road after sitting for 9 years. I got most of the electrical figured out. I got the bike to start and run now starting to double check all lights and so on. The bike didn't come with blinkers ( which I plan on fixing) the question I have is under the head light you have two black wires with eyelets on them I was wondering where they hook up. I'm almost sure that they are suppose to be gronded, just wondering where they are suppose to be grounded. Any help would be appreciated.

grounds for the turn signal posts, the original turnsignals stalks actually held the headlight shell to the fork "ears"
