CB750F - 2 prong connector on wiring harness?
« on: September 07, 2017, 04:10:11 PM »
Folks,

I have a brand new wiring harness for my 750f and I have a connector with two red wires that I'm unsure of (see pic, top right).  What is this supposed to connect to?

Im don't have any info with me away from home but you are missing your other wire coming off your starter solenoid.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Thanks Jerry.  Sorry, if you mean the large black starter wire then I just hadn't hooked that up yet.  I've got a bit to go but I'm still stumped by this two red wire block...

OK, just found this loosely attached to a spare battery tray.  The end has been cut so I still have no idea where it goes but it clearly attaches to my mystery 2 prong harness. 

Any ideas?

My first thought / guess was connector added for a battery tender ?

I don't know much about the F models at all, but I don't recall ever seeing a plug like that in a stock harness.
The 2 wires being the same color also seems counter-intuitive to me.

I cleaned them up a bit and one is in fact red/white.  I spliced them together, and connected to the + terminal on the starter solenoid - all sorted!

Thanks all!
