    Connectors

    I recently bought a 1980 GS750L with a fairing installed, which I have now removed. The PO used ring connectors with bolts for all the connections when he installed the wiring harness. Is there any advantage to replacing these with spade connectors or should I just leave them alone?

    Except for the fact that they are bulky, hard to insulate and probably ugly, there is no reason they shouldn't work.

    Personally, I would change them. You can get connectors at Vintage Connections.

      Thanks for the response. I will plan on replacing them. You're right on all accounts, I could barely get the headlight put back together due to all the electrical tape I had to wrap the bulky connections in.
