i have a 1982 GS 750 with 2 black and white wires with loop ends leading out of the wiring harness. One originally went to the starter solenoid and the other to the battery box . Is it best to run these 2 wires to negatve post on battery or leave them as the factory had them?

If you connect them both to the battery your bike will not charge at all.
You should at least reconnect them to where they were but prefereably..............

STEP #2.) GOOD R/R GROUNDS Make sure that the R/R(-) is properly grounded to: harness,battery,frame.
I have described a single point grounding approach that minimizes the amount of current that flows between the battery (-) and the R/R (-) connections. By doing that there is less susceptibility to resistance due to bad connections and corrosion and the R/R should charge the battery more accurately.
While there a different ways to implement the R/R grounding scheme, the way Suzuki originally implemented the GS electrical charging systems is confused, inconsistent and not ideal in any sense of the word. I provided the theory of why the one below is best, I will not rehash that here. Just follow the directions below:
By picking one of the R/R mounting bolts as the single point ground point, the R/R(-) wire can be very short, the mounting plate is automatically grounded and all of the return current wires can be tied securely together at a single point. Here are the connections- #1: Ground R/R(-) to case and side plate
- #2: The shortest wire to a frame bolt
- #3: The shortest wire to the Battery (-)
- #4: Connects to the (B/W) harness negative ring lugs (typically the one attached at the solenoid mounting bolt). You can leave the other harness ground ring lug (B/W) where it normally is picking up the battery box ground.
