Hey guys, I'm looking to replace the stock control switches and buttons with aftermarket units.
I've got a momentary switch that I'll be using for the start button, and from what I can tell without taking apart the controls just yet, that if I used the momentary switch one wire goes to ground and the other goes to Y/R in the harness. By bypassing the stock right hand controls and using the momentary switch, when the bike initially starts, the headlight would remain on instead of turning off before getting started, correct? What would be the best wiring options to retain that function so the battery isn't totally stressed out when starting?
Also, is there a best way to eliminate/not use the hi/lo switch but instead wire it up to a fused switch for just on/off? This would mean rewiring so the headlight isn't supplied power when ignition is set to run/on.
Has anyone used something like this for a similar situation? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Handlebar-...om-/222227388306?_trksid=p2385738.m2548.l4275
I have the schematic but it's a bit fuzzy and I can't make out a few of the wiring labels. That, and I'm not the best with wiring and routing when it comes to schematics. I have wired a Honda GY6 Ruckus harness from scratch but somehow I am intimidated by this harness for some reason.
Thanks!
