  • wiring on 81 XS11

    Put my battery back in the bike and turned key, Nothing. Found a red wire, wrapped in a cloth coating, broken off. One end goes to a connector and the other ????? no idea. assuming maybe to the + on the battery of the solinoid. Any one out there know for sure.

    Where is the wire? There are several red wires.

      yep, thats right
      that wire goes to the starter solenoid,
      where the thick pos lead from the battery connects...
