Re: Headlight Wiring (two in particular)
I put a female bullet connector and boot on the wires in the headlight and that's all sorted.
Finally got round to tidying the starter relay mess up with a new plug and new relay.
Somebody had spliced into the harness to bypass the original starter relay and used what looked like a 14v generic job. Either way it was a total mess.

After1
After2
If its of any interest, the replacement relay (like this below) comes with the connector the wrong way round (B & M dont match the original B & M fittings), you have to pop the cap off the top of the relay and use your original Honda one (the green cover) to make it compatible. Easy to do and saves you a few pennies, I've not read it anywhere else so figured I'd post.

Hi,
Here is what I was faced with. What colours did you find the sidelight bulb holder to use

Re: Headlight Wiring (two in particular)
Just trying to make head way with the wiring. I have two diodes in there which I have not seen before and I do not know what they do.
Cannot find sidelight bulb wiring or holder so must assume it does not come with one as the headlight is on all the time.
