K6 UK/US wiring harness differences?

(1/3) > >>

Hi guys,

The wiring on my US K6 is old and crusty and as I'm doing a full rebuild I want to replace it.

As standard this bike had a headlight that was wired to be on, I have since bought a UK spec switchgear which will allow me to turn the lights on and off. My question is - are the UK and US harnesses themselves any different? I've seen a reasonably priced harness on eBay from Z1 parts (a supplier ive seen mentioned on our yank sister site) for ~£80 delivered, but just want to check it's the right fit before pulling the trigger.

The replacement part I've found is 3200-341-703 whilst CMSNL states the correct part number for a U.K. Spec K6 as 32100-341-900

Hello, I think the only differences are as you stated, eg lights on all the time, think also that us bikes don't have parking or what they say side lights. I maybe wrong. There is forum member on here which makes up harnesses, Alan?. Hopefully he or someone will tap in, get in touch with him and he will put you right.

Im wondering whether those differences exist in the switches solely, would make sense I suppose. Just had a look at that website and it's well over double the price of the ones I'm looking at..

There was a recent thread about CB550 wiring (http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php/topic,12019.0.html) where it was noted that there was a jumper wire somewhere in the harness that did the lights on bit. I'm thinking it's probably something similar with the CB750.
