xs650 scrambler build

IMG_5332.jpg IMG_5334.jpg IMG_5333.jpg IMG_5335.jpg started mocking some stuff up and cutting some of the tabs off going to try and make a tray under the seat today.
 
Another member posted this template quite a while back. I’ve always wanted to build one but never got around to it. It looks pretty straight forward though.

If you are using the 2 original coils then one of them connects to the grey and red/white wires to the left in the picture and the other coil is connected to the orange and red/white wires to the right. You may need to change the grey and orange connectors to male bullets to suit the coils' female bullet connectors. Can you post a picture of the coil connectors?

ya your right i will one is a male and one if female on the coils also quick q how would i go about deleting my kill switch and relocating my starter button ? unnamed.jpg do i just need to take the 2 red wires and tie them together and hook the blue to a switch with the other side of the switch to ground ?
 
One of the red/white wires is from the fuse box and feeds power to the starter solinoid via the start switch.The same red/white wire feeds the coils via the kill switch. You need to determine which red/white wire that is and run it to the other red/white wire to feed the coils and also run it your start switch. The starter solinoid is grounded not the switch.
Thanks dude !
 
Wait! I take all that back. Your comments are correct. Tie the red/white wire together to eliminate the kill switch and for the start switch connect the blue/white wire to one side and ground the other. Your start switch needs to be momentary.
