1972 cb500 ignition switch- CIRCLE or SQUARE plug????
« on: April 26, 2010, 08:00:03 PM »
Im away from my bike and I need to order a new ignition switch.

For some reason I am thinking that the 500 has a circle harness instead of a square one..

Does anyone know which it is?

I need to order one asap, and dont want to get the wrong one.

Are there even two different types??

Im confused

Thanks guys.

it shows on ebay having pretty much all square plugs from 500 to the 750.

BUt there are also circle plugs for the 350 to the cb500??
