    I plan on replacing my instrument panel and wiring harness. I have a 81 650 wiring harness on the way that looks complete and not chopped up like mine which is the reason for replacing. Also on the way is a instrument panel off a 80 650, wanted to go to a gear driven tach mine was giving me problems and I have the gear on my engine already looked and pulled it out. Will everything go together or will I have any issues with everything working together electrics turn signals etc. The bike is the one in my sig 82 maxim j 650 Thanks for any info

    Make sure you have a wiring diagram for both "versions" of the 650s; there are differences in the starting/safety circuit wiring/components between them I do believe.

    Yes. The Haynes ones are pretty good. There are a couple of places they show joins of wires that actually aren't connected, or show them crossing where they're actually joined, but that's really just in a couple of places. I'd say they're 99% accurate.
