1981 CB650 Custom ignition wiring how to re-wire or wire around a key
« on: May 08, 2010, 04:24:14 PM »
Can anyone tell me how to wire around or to rewire my ignition to work with one of the cheap $8 auto parts house ignition switches? I am building a Bobber and need a little love.

CB650 Honda Custom...........

Thanks -
Donnie

Try red wire to black wire, that should liven up your circuit, that's really all the ignition switch does for the 650.
Every thing green is earth wires.
Black only has power once the ignition is on.
Red is constant power so be careful where you wire that to.
But just to get the bike going red to black should work for ya.
