Terminal Connector Preference?

[muskallunge]

I'm doing my first wire up for a kick only '78 xs650 hardtail. I've got a wiring diagram but I've never connected wires, etc. Looking for advice on types of terminals/connectors to use when wiring up my bike. Thanks.

check out Vintage Connections... OEM quality stuff and great people to deal with. If you go this route be sure to buy their crimping tool too.

Might as well grind thru this, too.

Hi muskallunge,
I'm with willis, those guys crimps & crimping tools look to be a better way to go than solder & shrinksleeve and WAY better than the crap they sell in auto stores.
