Thank you very much! I have one last question, can it be connected with the brown/yellow coil connection on the coil itself?

From the positive terminals, I run two wires to each coil , and where do I connect them to the coil? Or yellow/red wire?

If you connect the brown wire to positive it will bypass the switch and everything will work for the time being.

It helps to mention what motorcycle you have. I'm assuming its the csr, hence the wiring diagram in my previous reply. :)

So you have to hot wire the yellow wire.

The 79 650-SR is pretty much a completely different motorcycle than the CSR & the wiring diagram is going to be different.

Does your motorcycle have the stock ignition switch, handlebar control, wire harness & points ignition?
The SR came with points ignition, so the ign wiring is going to be different than the CSR. The 650B wiring is probably a closer match.
