Howdy folks!
This is my first XS, and I'm excited to get this bike back on the road. This guy I know bought this bike in good running condition, then promptly started a project he couldn't finish. He then sold it at a loss to a good friend of mine, who didn't have time to finish it either. Once it runs, I'm hoping to use on nice sunny days for my 2 mile commute and maybe some riding in the mountains on the weekends with the wifey.
So overall, she ran when parked, but while this dude was taking it apart, the original wiring harness got ruined. My buddy got a new harness from Mike's XS, and got it 50% installed. There are lots of extra wires, with no place to go because there no turn signals, and no instrument lights. That said, I don't really mind that. But I do want to get the harness sorted before things start going back together. I read a lot of the threads here in the tech section, and have set out to make my own wiring diagram based on one of the ones that Jayel made before I start modifying a perfectly good harness. Anyways, I thought i would post the wiring diagram here to see if any of you familiar with these bikes saw any issues with it or had any suggestions.
