Hi All
Does anyone have a copy of the electrical diagram for the bike, I am looking to install some extra day running lights.
Fed up with not being seen!!!!!!!
This is for older models, but there's not much change.

Are you wiring front and rear? Front are easy. Straight to the accessory leads. You need to wire a switch to dim as well
Same with rear unless they also activated with brake lights.
Which running lights are you thinking of getting
Thanks for the info, :clap: will print the drawing.
Bought a set of Bikevis Bullets & Cree lights, all I have to do now is find somewhere to fit them.

That's what I have on mine.
For the Cree you must dim them at night time otherwise you will blind traffic.

I have a PDF of the genuine workshop manual. It is 20 mb file size, so if anyone can tell me how and where to put it, I will do so gladly if it helps.
He now stands back and waits for the deluge of replies with suggestions, some clean, some not so clean. :oops:
If you know who to ask its available already :whistling:

Trying to get my head around the Cree connecting instructions!!
How did you connect in the dimmer fuction??
Its the white wire. You need to connect it to switched power
i.e. a switch
Me being a bit dim here !! Understand the switch bit but were does the other side of the switch connect to??

Earth so a negative point on the bike. What kind of switch do you have?
Hi
Using a two poition rocker switch.
Does the white wire connect in to this switch and then from the switch to a positive connection??
Thanks for help.

So an on off switch? Are there three progs sticking out?
One will connect to +12v, one to ground and the other to the white Cree LED wire
Installed the bullets this morning.
Next the Cree lights!!!
Trying to find a place to put the control box, where did you put yours??
One the left hand side, where the accessory leads are. If you go up the side towards the mirrors, there's a gap for it to go. Fits nicely there.
Ok thanks, had a quick look over the bike after I finsished putting the bullets on, trying to find a suitable place.
Attached a photo of the install so far.
Looking good, but the green doesn't go!
Going to try blue, if no good going to change it back to white.
Mate, that looks really nice. I think you may attract some attention from five-o though.
It should fail an MOT but would only be illegal if it flashed, was red or changed the perceived size of the vehicle, ie these boy races driving around on just their blue side lights. The perceived size of the vehicle has changed. Where on the beast you have two whacking great Headlamps above so the size hasn't changed.
If you are going to have plod trouble which I doubt on this type of bike you are looking at a £30 non endorsed ticket for failing to maintain lights
Hopefully plod will leave me alone!!
I have put a connection in line which can easily be taken apart for the MOT.
Will be putting the Cree lights on in a couple of weeks, once I've made a bracket to suit.
