Hey guys
I have a 79 xs400 and am planning on doing a bobber project with it. My one main concern is the wiring, even though I'm an electrician by trade, I'm not too confident with motorcycle wiring (idk why). Do you guys reuse some of the stock wiring or is there a kit people buy specifically for bobbers that can help minimize wiring and make it easier to do for newbies? People say its pretty simple, but for some reason I'ts not clicking in my head
I want to keep the bike as clean as possible so pretty much what i want is a horn, night time lights and possibly a neutral indicator light (plan on reusing stock gauges) and maybe I'm forgetting other things to make it street legal. I'd also like to try to keep most of the wires hidden in the frame and fake oil tank. I plan on removing the electric start too once i get the motor up and running.
Any tips?
Thanks
