Just plain old Microsoft MSpaint. It comes on every version of Windows so it's convenient for me. I can't install programs at work, but it's already there. I'm sure any raster drawing program should be able to edit it.

Awesome! I'm so grateful!

One question though. My ignition switch only have three positions. Off-ign-start, I suppose this will make a differene?

Thanks!

Im a little confused, may just be inexperience.
Between the Starter button and the starter solenoid where the wire goes from blk (@ button) to red/yel (@ solenoid), is this a ground wire?
Or is it to complete the circuit?

No prob. THe factory originally had the red/yel as ground, and black as hot on the coil (and black as hot on the start button), but the two small wires on the solenoid can be interchanged. I thought red/yel would make more sense as hot, even though the start button uses black. Feel free to wire it whichever way makes more sense to you. I think the factory flubbed it, so either way it will still have some confusion.

Can you describe the ignition switch in more detail?
How will you control high/low beam?

The high\low beam: I was wanting to run like just the high beam, but if I have to use a switch than I'll work it in somehow
