    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Hello.
New project GS450L owner here with some wiring confusion. The rear fender and lighting was missing from the bike I purchased and all of the wiring behind the carburetors is a mess. It is just hanging and I'm not sure if anything is missing or not. I've looked around for images of stock wiring but not having much luck and I thought I would ask here for help. So looking for some good photos of stock GS450 wiring mainly behind the tank/carbs to make sure I have everything and where everything will go when I put the bike back together. I am wanting to try to test everything and start the bike up before I tear it down so I will have an idea of how many electrical problems I face.

This photo is what I'm currently looking at and working with.

This is what I have handy. It's for a 300 but should be very,very similar. As to what's what you need a wiring diagram. There's one in the manual. Your picture is turned sideways and is a pain to look at but I'm thinking you are missing the fuse holder that goes from the red? wire's empty socket...you probably have it with the old battery cable? anyways I digress...

The Factory Manual would have saved me some time when I replaced the harness on a 1000G. I had the manual, but I didn't know that stuff was in there.
