Got most of the bike wired up this morning, just 2 wires left over.... grey and black, according to the XT600E wiring diagram, they're for the "REV indicator warning lamp".... :scratch: ..... :wtf: is a rev indicator lamp..... I'm guessing its an ignition light, do they have one ??

600e dosn't have a tacho so there's a light on the dash that lights up at 5000rpm

I don't make mistakes. I make prophecies which immediately turn out to be wrong.

That's a bit of an OXYMORON. I didn't think there was any such thing as a long drive in England. :lol:
Don't forget to top up your oil before you go. :oilleak: :oilleak: :oilleak: :oilleak:
