Hi guy's I am new to this site, I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice. I am currently street fighting a 96, 600 bandit. its already naked I have taken the original light off and have got brackets to fit the twin lights to the frame. My question is what do i do with all the wires that have come out the original head light ?? Will they be ok cable tied together and water proofed, and hidden behind the twin head lights ?? any help or advice would be great

well they obviously need to be connected to the new twin lights.. cable ties keep it neat. The wiring should be fine behind the lights.

I wasn't sure if that would be enough, I will connect and fit the new lights cable tie the additional cable up and put it behind the new headlights, it wont be going out in the rain much any way

you can see from my avatar i have the twin lights, mine have always been fine in the rain.. the wiring is just bunched up behind the lights under the clocks.

good luck Thumbs Up

If you have any old looms lying around? Or maybe a local bike scrap yard. See if you can get hold of a couple of the rubber covers they used to have for the headlamp connecter blocks. Get two, one on each end of the part of your loom to be connected, and when the wires are joined, overlap the rubber bits and tape up.

Or try some shrink-wrap.

Nice hornet looks good. Like the Hornet was thinking of one of them before the bandit come along it was a steal, Whats the Hornet like to live with ??

I will get some pic's of my bandit up when its done long way off yet.

Got a new question, I have now took the headlight off and ready to fit new twin lights, the connector fits the connector which is fine and headlight works with no side lights. I have another connector only small mind. Now the wires going in to this connector are:

white and black and brown

the lights that are left on the back of the twin lights, which i assume the wires left on the bike are for are

White and Yellow

my question is which one from the bike do i connect to the white wire and which one do i connect to the yellow wire ????

any help would be appreciated.

(will look for them rubber things great idea thanks)
