Title: WTB: Dashboard lights harness
Post by: Chuck on July 04, 2007, 07:23:26 AM
My project bike is mysteriously missing the dashboard lights.  I assume that's where the green connector on the main wiring harness goes (2001).  I can't tell if I can use one from other years because I can't find it on the fiche.  (There's something called "SOCKET" on the speedo/tacho page, but I'm not sure if that's really just a single light socket.)  If someone has the debris from several old GS's (gee, I don't know, who would those people be?  :laugh:), I'd send a couple bucks (maybe ten?) to someone who can send me the green connector and the six lights dangling off of it.  It's a bummer not knowing if I'm in neutral or blasting my highbeams.  (Or if my oil is out?  :o)

Send me a picture of the plug so I know it fits if possible please.

Thanks all.

Sounds like a rebuild went bad somewhere along the way. I will look and see if I have an extra. I know dgyver probably has a few also cause he makes track bikes.

Okie, I'm $15 poorer, and I don't have any lights, and Frankie won't return my emails.  Does anyone ELSE (starwalt?) have some dashboard lights for me?

I've prepared this graphic to explain what it is I'm looking for, based on some photos I ripped off eBay.

If anyone could help me out, I'd be mucho appreciative.

Thanks.  That diagram is way better than the 2001 diagram.

What I need is the #12 and #16 parts on that page, plus the 6 light bulbs.  That's $50 OEM, and no light bulbs, plus shipping, which isn't really worth it to me.  I was just hoping that someone who maybe made a track bike or two has some spares.

I think I have part of what you need, the tach and speedo lights?  Here is a pic of the connector, light bulbs look ok but I didn't hook them up to verify that they are any good.  If they look like they work, call it $5 shipped?  My pay pal is rylonjerome@gmail.com

rylon - I need that part, and the indicator lights (oil/neutral/turn/highbeam)

Right, that's why you said "part of what I need."  I can read.

I'd like to see if anyone has the whole enchilada, but if no one gets back to me in a day or so, you're on.

Don't want to highjack or try to steal parts from you Chuck, but I need the instrument wire harness also.  I have the idiot lights but not the two lights for the speedo and tach.  If you find the whole set up you need I would like to have the parts from rylon.

thanks,
Brent

No problem.  I officially confer "dibs" to you.  I'm not riding much at night lately, so I can hold out for the whole set.

Thanks Chuck, I appreciate that.

Rylon, I don't have paypal.  I will send you a M/O for it.  Will that work?

This should be the last thing to have my bike on the road and ready for inspection.  Aside from a little wrenching and elbow grease.
