I've just fitted a new rectifier to my K6, this part -
http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/honda/cb_750_k6/77/picture/regulator_rectifier/It has a slightly different orientation to the original that was on my bike, and the metal rectifier body is fouling on the frame. Might this cause a short?
I ask because since fitting the new rectifier (and a new loom), the starter solenoid 'clicks' and the starter doesn't turn (it was turning before). Bike starts fine on the kickstart though, oil pressure and neutral lights work fine. other than these two lights and the starter switches nothing else is connected behind the headlight yet.
Any ideas on what might be causing the starter solenoid 'click'?
here is a picture with the new rectifier fitted (before the new loom went it, you can see the burnt out green (and other) wires)

and another picture of behind the headlight, with just the neutral light, oil pressure light and starter switches connected to new loom.
