Try poking around the diagrams at Partzilla. I guess your bike is a KZ400-H1?
Sounds like it's missing a turn signal or hazard relay and maybe the starter solenoid/switch.
Some other electrical parts. igniter. voltage regulator. brake light outage indicator switch.

If needed, this link allows download of the chassis wiring diagram from KZr's FILEBASE:
Click here > www.kzrider.com/filebase/category/50-kz400-electrical

Am seeing only a single flasher unit for the turn signals.

Good Fortune! :)

To download the KZ400-H1 service manual, click this link, allow some time to download (probably less than 1 minute), and scroll down to page S-8 to see what's under the side covers.

Think of it this way: once you replace all those bits your electrical system should be in really good order. :-)

Was going to put a minimal wire loom in I could just put single fuses in where needed along the loom and no need for box then? Am I right in thinking that? Thanks for help

You can get waterproof fuse holders that use modern automotive fuses. Since your fuse box has been taken apart you might as well upgrade while you're replacing. (Unless you're going for a 100% correct restoration, which I don't believe you are.) You can add those fuses inline independently - no box required, as such - but you'll still probably want to protect them and it's convenient to have them all in one place.

You'll still need the regulator/rectifier and the starter relay since the LTD does not have a kickstarter. And of course the turn signal flasher if you want to have signals.
