Hi fellas, I recently completed a top end re-build on my motor. I begin to re-assemble everything and put the motor back in the bike. Everything appears to be going fine until I try the starter button to turn the motor over to check my ignition timing. I push it and nothing happens. Mind you this is the second time I have had this problem. I also have two wiring harnesses for my bike. The one it came with, and one I bought off of mikesxs. I decided to put the new harness on the bike in the mean time to see if it would cure the problem. Tac, and speedo lights work, brake/tail lights work, signals work, ignition switch works, headlight (high/low) all work but again no starter button. I just push it and nothing happens. There is one dark blue wire coming out of my starter switch housing that I believe to be the one wire I cannot find a proper home for. It has battery voltage when I turn the key on and when i turn the key off if i press and depress the starter button my meter goes up and down in sequence with my pushing so therefore I know it is tied to the button. I have plugged this dark blue wire into about everything available in my headlight bucket and have blown 4 headlight fuses in the process. I think this wire needs a ground but I have tried to plug it into one with no luck. This is very frustrating and I cannot figure this out please help!!
