new to this bike

Hi I have just swaped my 1981 goldwing for a 1981 750 Seca, as I am new to this bike I would like to find a hand book and workshop book on the bike, as I am in Southern Ireland there are no one to help, also who knows what the small switch is for next to the starter switch, is it for the light under the head lamp? as this is not working at the moment, allso the brake light on the dash stays on but that could be the sencer in the fluid tank, I have only had it for a few days so still finding my way around the bike. any help out there.

 

You can get a Hayns manual of ebay for the 650/750 XJ bikes. That switch is for the axilary/fog lamp.(the one on my maxim only worked when it wanted to) And yes the brake warning light is for the brake fluid being low. Post some pictures of your bike...we like pictures.


Oh, by the way welcome to the site.

Erin go brah! kindred celt, Not only was my mother full blood Irish, she had the luck to be born on St. Patricks day as well! Now that all that's aside, be aware that your master cylinder is remote from the brake lever, if you follow the cable from the lever, you'll find the reservoir for the front brakes. That is if you have that type of brake set up; if you don't this is moot.
