First. I have a 1981 engine but in using the wiring and electrical components from a 78 special. I am getting a smaller battery to eliminate the battery box. I am eliminating the electric start so I'm not worried about grinding the starter. But I would like to eliminate as many extra wires and relays as possible.
I'm a bit worried about the day time headlights aspect of this.
What do I need to do to make my bike function the the best it possibly can without the relay. Can I elimate the reserve lighting device ? Or the light checker.
I have read in other threads that I'll need to connect the two red/white wires that used to run through the safety relay.
I know there are similar threads out there , but none of them seemed to be clear cut about this. So that's the goal of this thread. Clear cut instructions on how to eliminate the safety relay for a kick only bike while maintaining the best functionality. Thank you
