Default Freaky Electrical Stuff

&nbsp\\; It`s been quite a long while. Broke the 79 FXE (or what`s remaining of it) still have all original parts, there just not on it. Got it&nbsp\\; up to a full Buck racing a BMW car out of Malibu, the guy didn`t know a Shovel could do that. Started some funky stuff with the electrical, some broken wires then a short now it`s over a friends house my good manual it at mom and dad`s and I think I need to&nbsp\\;think about &nbsp\\;replacing the circut breakers, part of the orignal equipment still on bike. Can any one give info on amp and location for the main, ignitation, ligths and accessiores(these aren`t important no more there but will replace)
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbs p\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\ \;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Thanks, (Bike Stuck 20 miles From Home)
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbs p\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\ \;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; &nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbs p\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\ \;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; &nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Daryl
&nbsp\\;P.S. I`ll have to check wiring again, and re-wire when I get it back!

Default RE: Freaky Electrical Stuff

The three circuit breakers behind the oil tank are 15 amp.&nbsp\\; If you have one attached to the positive battery terminal that is a 30 amp.&nbsp\\; Good luck.
