Hi Dee, in the first instance do you know the origin of the parts on your bike (switch gear etc) White/Red is normally the main supply to the fusebox. (how much of the original electrical system remains ??)

That is a fantastic question - and I don't know the answer - my guess is that the loom belongs to the bike frame - which is a 1982 GPZ1100
The only alternative is that the loom got swapped in with the engine which came from a 1983 GPZ1100
You know what though Wookie - I haven't even confirmed that the switchgear is GPZ - the front end on this bike came from a GSXR from a year that is yet to be determined so it's possible that the switchgear is Suzuki
I definitely have much more investigating to do!

There is a white/red on the diagram going directly to the fuse box from the battery - but do you see the other white/red that just terminates into a white plug?

With regards the White/Red there are 2 options (USA or Europe) as you are running carbs in both cases these "spare" white and reds can be insulated and forgotten about as long as you have power at the fuse box

That's really helpful Wookie - thank you - do you know when access to the Filebase will be up and running again?
