Wiring Harness - No blinkers!

Actual Post Date:  02-02-2012

So it has been a while since my last post as I have been struggling a bit getting the blinkers working.  After moving over the wiring harness from my old bike, I could get everything working (horn, head light, tail light,brake light), but no blinkers.  After calling the company, he suggested that it was a grounding issue.  I had the lights grounded to the center top triple clamp bolt.  Apparently when you ground to that location, the grounding occurs through the bearings in the head tube which is not that great.  So, I connected a solid copper 10 AWG wire from the sub frame grounding bolt to the center grounding bold, and voila, blinkers!

Connection at SubFrame.


Connection at top triple tree.
