1976 550K SMSU location?
« on: July 10, 2011, 06:20:00 PM »
I have looked for the starter motor safety unit (SMSU) and I haven't found it yet!
On earlier models it was above the regulator under the left side cover.
It's not there on my bike. The wiring diagram shows that it has one someplace.
The yellow/red wire from the starter solenoid goes up into the main harness and from there, I assume, it goes to the starter button.
Any one have a clue where they relocated the SMSU?  Thanks!
I want to die like my grandfather did...in his sleep and not screaming like the passengers in his car!

Anyone, any ideas?
I've had the left side elec panel off; it's not there on either side.
It's not along the frame rail or around the engine that I can see.
It wouldn't be in the headlight bucket, would it?

Still searching. The wiring diagram is no help!
