Looks like I'm having a hard time getting this photo to upload clearly and right side up.
What I've got is a spst switch that has to close before the bike can be started or lights turned on.
My starter is a push button in series with the start solenoid.
My kill switch is in the power wire to the coil pack.
I've got my reg wired straight to the positive terminal of the battery.
All my loads are in parallel and I'm not using any relays.
I've got 5 switches main, lights, horn, starter, kill
Not including nutral, oil and brake
