Hello All. I have a 1981 XS 650 Special that I bought with a charging issue a couple of years ago. Being new to 650's I thought that doing an upgrade(?) to an XS charge would be a better deal. So I spent a pile of money and had a friend help me install it, I didn't realize that it required wiring changes. Which nowhere in the advertising at Mikes do they mention that. Or I would have left it stock. The bike is charging and runs fine but I don't know what wires I need to connect to make the headlight come on after the engine starts. I have been trying to figure it out but it is proving too much for this old man to get. I no longer feel comfortable on larger bikes, so I have to sell this bike because I don't want it to die a slow death in a storage shed. It needs nothing was bought from original owner with only 9300 miles. So can someone help me out so I can get this 650 to a new home. Thanks JohnB
