    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...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Maybe I should have asked a few days ago, but I bought a 01 R1 Tail Light off ebay for $16.00, it has two tail/brake lights, my 82 GS11E only has one, will have a wiring problem or low/dim tail lights if i hook this up??
 
Re: R1 Tail light

No, there should be no problem. The stator and R/R are the same between the 1100 and the 1150. The 1150 was made with dual tail lights like the R 1.

Should i split the wires nraer the tailight or run it up the wiring harness?
 
Just put a "Y" connector at the lead as it enters the tail light. Electricity doesnt care.

i got it hooked but, but now the tail light indicater light stays on?
 
By tail light indicator do you mean an indicator that shows your light is burnt out? I'm asking 'cause my frugal 450 doesn't have such luxuries! :wink:

Did you wire the bulbs in series or parallel? I'm guessing that your indicator senses resistance in the circuit and if it goes too high it assumes the bulb has blown. If you wire them in series it'll sense double the resistance. Try parallel and see what happens.

hope this helps...Sam
