Hey all,
So here's my issue.. Minor but figured I would hit this up before I do something stupid and fry the bike.
'81 CB750c, Just removed the big display cluster (tac, dummy lights) and noticed that in doing so, my left rear blinker now doesn't light up. Bulb is still good but, it's getting no power. Kinda expected something like this so, it wasn't a shock. I'm wondering If I were to take the wires that ran into the back of the tac and light cluster, and splice them together. Effectively completing the circuit and bypassing those displays, could this fix my issue? Or would it fry something? Kinda a silly question, I know. But when it comes to electrical, like many home mechanics, I'm clueless. Figured going to a bunch of other do it yourselfers would help before I go trying silly stuff.
Thanks in advance guys and gals.
It ain't a custom till you have customized it yourself.
