Working through the wiring on my '72 and among the MANY questions I have, one of the first is about the turn signals:
where do they get their grounding? My bike came with signals installed on the rear but none on the front.
I have ones from a newer bike for the front but oddly the fronts and rears both have the same wiring....that is: all of them just have the one wire coming out of the mounting bolt...like the wick on a wire cracker. and with the mounts being isolated by rubber mounts, what provides the ground?
I can get them working by adding a gator clip lead to ground, but???
