Battery hook up ??

(1/3) > >>

Hi Folks,
CB750 F1.
Just a few questions about hooking up my battery if you dont mind ??
Am i right in saying that the

the battery cable from the engine goes to the starter solenoid which side the solenoid is not marked ??
Then the short battery cable (positive) which connects to the loom goes to the other connection on solenoid ??
Then the frame ground goes to the negitive on the battery ??

What goes onto the positive on the battery ??

Cheers    Stuart

there should be a heavy cable from the pos terminal of the battery to the other terminal on the solenoid, when you press the starter switch the solenoid is energised so making the connection between the battery and starter motor. the cable from the loom supplies normal current for ignition, lights etc.

Cheers I must be missing a cable I only have the starter cable from the engine to solenoid, the short cable to the loom and solenoid and the negitive to frame (big terminal lug)  I must be missing the positive from battery to solenoid ???


Cheers
Stu

I am going to need to extend the starter cable can I splice another piece of cable to make it longer ???
