XJ750 RH looking for simple wiring for lights etc

i have converted a 1983 xj750rh into a trike and want to do away with the mass of extra loom that is there but dont know where to start ??? If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be most helpful , Thanks in advance .

 

A little more information would help.

Are you trying to eliminate some lights, or add more?
Where specifically is the "mass of extra loom"? Headlight Bucket?

I would deffinately be interested in some pics of how you converted your bike to a trike.

Basically i want to get the bike running on the bare minimum wiring . I want to keep headlights , indicators and horns but eant the rest gone. I know on the model i have it has a left and right loom . I will upload some pics at some point today .

The XJ's use a Y style wiring harness. The wirng loom that runs along the left side is primarily used for the left switch controls (horn, lights). The wiring loom on the right side is for the right switch controls (starter button, kill switch). This all feeds back into the tail section of the harness which is mostly for the ignition/ charging systems.

There is not a lot of extra wiring that could be removed from the harness.

I've seen I don't know how many threads on this. Here's the first one I found with a diagram:

Most people will lecture you about removing the safety circuit, but on a trike, who cares about a kickstand warning? Myself if I wasn't trying to keep my Atari at least looking like it's functioning as intended, I would lose a lot of stuff. Maybe someday if I do something radical with it. But probably not.

Just search for minimal wiring diagrams.
