Proper wire harness routing

Postby hd54kh » Sun Oct 07, 2018 12:58 pm

I have searched and stared at a lot of pictures and looking for the correct routing of the wiring on my 54 KH.
There is the loom heading towards the Generator and regulator, the loom heading towards the horn than onto the coil, the loom heading towards the brakelight switch and rear fender.

If anyone can help me with the correct routing so it would be correct and safe.

Also I do not have the spacers for the headlight bracket, anyone have a picture and/or measurement? They are hidden so I can probably fabricate my own or if anyone has a spare set I can buy. P/N - 67821-52

Thanks in advance
Terry

Terry, If you don't get any pictures before tomorrow, I can shoot some of my original 54 KH for you. Jim

Terry, Here is a picture of the headlight bracket spacer. I have 3 sets in my drawer and each set measures just a little different in thickness? Not sure why but it shouldn't make much difference as long as they are close to the dimensions I posted. They shouldn't be too hard to fabricate but if you want these two for $20 let me know.

Stan I sent you a PM

Jim that would be great if you can do that.

If you can post them here this would be a good document for others if needed, and/or you can send them to me direct to [email protected].

Thanks guys, every step is getting me closer.

Terry or Jim, Any chance one of you could post those pictures here on the forum? I for one would like to see them and I'm sure it could be helpful to others.
Thanks, Stan

Sure let me try, there are about 26 pictures. All credit needs to go to Jim. This is a great reference he put together.
