Tri-Z electrical assembly help

[GoodKarma]

Okay, you've all been a help thus far, and things are coming together! It's time to hook up the electrical, and I'm a fish out of water. I have the manual, and have not sat down to study it yet, but that's my first step today or tomorrow. Any helpfull suggestions, advice, hints, things to watch out for? Seems like when I tore this down last Fall, there was a ground to the bare frame. Does that sound right? If so, I will need solid advice before I start grinding this paint off!

Chris shared some photos with me when he tore his down that helped me get an idea of some wire routing, but there's still a bit more that I don't know for sure. The manual just doesn't seem real clear to me, unless you are looking at an assembled bike when you are reading it!

Family is busting my chops to be running by the weekend, or I get left behind!

the ground goes under the rear bolt for the coil inbetween the coil and the frame, grind that bare to get the best contact.

I can get some pics of my Mx bike,as it's sitting with no plastic on it right now..just let me know what areas you are unshure about.

Bryan, If you get a chance can you post some good pics. I'm gonna need help with this as well. :D I tried to help Mike but my harness was a total disaster.... :eek:

The fuel lines, vacuum hoses and fuel pump setup will save me from buggin you guys later. :lol:

the top hose is the reserve line that comes off the side of the tank,, notice the arrow on the T fitting,, big line is the return that goes to the top side of the tank (big Hose) the air line in the back of the tank runs up through thoes tabs by the air box cover grommet and up over the rads,,Bottom fitting on fule pump is the pulser line that goes to the jug

every wire is color coded just connect the colors with the same color wire, blue to blue for your rectifier

[Bryan Raffa]

the first pic Im pointing to the orange wire thats your coil lead wire,,the second one is where I soderd the tether switch in to the harness right behind the orange connection,, the ground for the tether went right to where the harness grounds at the coil. pretty simple just make shure you got the same colors matched at the connections, the last pic the two wires that are not connected are for the over heat light, and the thermostat sensor wire was just zip tied up to the harness,,that red wire in the last pic is for my LED lights so dont get confused chris when you dont see that wire on your harness:lol:

sorry to bust in, but I like the color of that frame, do you have white or blue plastics? That blue with white would be sweet :D

[Bryan Raffa]

Sweeeet! Thanks for the help, and I should be able to start hooking things up very soon. Don't be suprised if there's more questions to come.

Is there a tip jar where we show our thanks?:beer
