Topic: What is this ...and can I disconnect it??

[SDmtnbkr]

I can't for the life of me figure out what this thing is, and now that I removed the metal fork covers it just gets in the way. It feeds into the headlight bucket then splits back into the main harness with the turn signals.

What is it, and can I remove it??

[Johnie]

That is the blinker horn. It beeps when your blinkers are on. Most guys remove it or at least disconnect it in the headlight bucket. It gets annoying...

boy does it ever

Soichiro thought you should have one! How dare you question Mr. Honda's judgement?

[BomberMann650]

If you wire it up to the throttle you can hear it go "eeeeeeEEEEEEEE,eeeeeeEEEEEEE,eeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEE" through the gears

Jim Carey had a CB550 with a buzzer

[SDmtnbkr]

Turn Signal Buzzer. If you remove it, I'm telling the Police!  When you do remove it, tape off the BROWN/BLUE wire as its hot when the indicators are on. Don't want it shorting to ground.

Sweet, thanks everyone. ....and thanks for this bit of info, if I did short there, I never would have found it and went mad! Lol

[DaveBarbier]

Plug it into the horn.

[Lostboy Steve]

I was leaving mine for as long as possible but then it really got annoying and had to go.

[BomberMann650]

Plug it into the horn.

Thats actually a great idea, thanks dave!

Come on guys!...your gonna tell him the real, honest truth?  Whoever asks about this should get a fanciful wild goose chase story about how important it is. Lol

I didn't know I had one (beeper) but when I had to replace my handlebars and reconnected everything it was working.

Funny thing is it doesn't worry me . Maybe cause I have good dose  of industrial deafness.

[Deltarider]

Connect it to the oil light and you'll have an audible alarm or make it warn you that the sidestand is not retracted yet.

That's a good idea. But it would be annoying on startup until you got the oil pressure up

Maybe you should connect it directly to switched power so it lets you know when you're riding.

Or connect it to a friends bike

EVERYONE HERE IS WRONG.

That is the flux capacitor!

Trust me, I'm from the future! Speaking of flux capacitors... anyone have a spare? I need to get back to 3679-Alpha-Z.

I removed mine and started wearing bell bottom jeans with tie-dyed shirts...

I removed the blinker buzzer as one of the first steps of modifying (destroying) my then CB750K6 in mint OEM shape back in the end of 70's.

I have found a NOS buzzer for the back to OEM look. It was not cheap. So save it for future use.  It has always been very easy tp forget the blinker on and close to crash with cars where the driver see my blinker telling I should turn. The buzzer will remind about switching the blinker off.

 I miss the one on my goldwing, it stopped on it's own. I've got a K2 750 right now, I'd like to try the beeper cancell button but the beeper doesn't work, or the cancell button is stuck on.

Why not a piezo buzzer?

Back in 2000 when I got my 750 the buzzer was the first thing to get the axe!

My thoughts exactly.

[rotortiller]

I got one and put it in the old OEM housing. Sounds like the original but can leak 'on' when wet. LED ground seeking 'on' instrument bulbs will do that too eg oil and neutral

I hear with that you can go 88mph in second gear.

[Lostboy Steve]

Lol I have one of those... Not to hijack the thread any more than it already is but did anyone see the ls powered Delorian? Freaking insane.

[BomberMann650]

88 mph in second!  That's a 1.00000% improvement over stock.  Instant hp gains!  Plug n play installation!  Increase your torque and lay rubber!

That's it? 1.00000? Thats still 1%  because of the decimal, haha.

LOL! along with Sean! I can see where this is going. 

[rotortiller]

Get two or three of these bikes together at an intersection making a turn on a red light next to a fart-bomb, muffler-toating Honda Civic cager with his window down and see how much pleasure that brings!

[seanbarney41]

Hell yeah...nothing better than a big crew of sohc4s rippin around...turn signal buzzin, brakes sqealin, chains rattlin, all shiftin at 8k plus
