87 kz1000p wiring harness was created by jokerrecycling

I have an 87 kzp that i am turning into a chopper. my biggest issue is the rat's nest that is the wiring harness. does anyone know if there is an aftermarket wiring harness that eliminates all of the wires for the police equipment?
I will post pictures later.

Not that im aware of youd be better off mounting the parts youre going to use and building your own harness to fit

You might need a relay for the higher currents in the grip heaters, as most Kawasaki switches won't carry much amps.

Yep, relays for everything! WGs coil mod, relay to kill the headlight with the starter switch, relay for the extra driving lights, relay for the phone charger, relay for the heated vest outlet... anywhere there's a hefty current draw. I'm building this bike for maximum reliability, as I intend to ride it around the continent.
