If that fuse was blown, the bike would be totally d
I also decided to look into why my neutral light didn't work. Took the neutral switch/button out of the top of the case, and it's pretty slotted from years of friction. Even more frustrating is the fact that it just doesn't work at all. Is this a known failure point?
I'm realizing that building a harness is gonna happen quicker than I want.
I also decided that keeping the bike original would be cool, but it's wiring is FUBAR. No sense in trying to fix what already got cut, spliced, tangled, etc.
Good question. Not sure. Probably not more than thatHow many fuses are there on a 76 ?
One ?
I also have a 76. I have a newer front end, which makes everything in the headlight bucket an absolute clustered mess. but as far as a new harness goes, I will likely buy a new one. my only thing is that Id love to have modern fuses and whatnot. is there an option for an easy fuse box for the bikes with standard harnesses? I dont plan to change a ton of stuff, but I DO like the idea of having easier, more modern fuses.
My suspisions have been confirmed... I guess from now on I'll just refer to PO as "The Mangler"The factory never used red or blue crimp connectors LOL.
What do ya mean? Which part are you referring to?Something doesn’t look right with that open gear.

I could write a horror novel about this shite. It's just downright bad.
When I bought the bike the wiring intimidated me to no avail. Now I just see a bike that needs a new harness... It's funny that it even ran.
It could be internally corroded, like mine was. There's a way to refreshen the switch internal contacts by twisting the plunger back-and-forth...
