OK, cheers guys will have another good look in there tomorrow. Good news is that I've got power and the engine turns over with the oil light going out.
So I'm getting closer. The bike hasn't run since the 80s, so I'm thinking I'm quite lucky 19

Is there anyway you can remove the headlight on all the time feature?

I have that switch, well its a remade one from Germany , but it has no effect of the front headlight in the off or on position. Everything else ie tail light and speedo switches turn off an and on.

Hi.
I am sorting all the wiring out on my usa spec cb550, I've rewired the indicators and when I tried them they remain on with the headlight. I've removed the blue/white and orange/white wires and the indicators perform as normal and remain off, but the headlight remains on all the time, how can I stop this please? Cheers Kris 22

Hi.
Could anyone give me an approximate length for the throttle cables please. My project had some idiotic cowhorns on so I'm believe they might have had to buy longer cables, but because I'm on a tight budget I don't want to buy some new ones in case these are correct. Cheers Kris 29
