I don't know if anyone's ever used oldmanhonda.com for wiring diagrams, but he has an interactive diagram that allows you to delete some major stuff, but none of the minor. It's a pretty cool site to check out to help with wiring.

This is the wiring diagram I'm using right now (I got it from oldmanhonda.com and deleted more stuff to fit what I've got). Anyone w/ experience wiring 360s see anything I'm missing for a kick-only w/ no signals? Also, I'm not sure how to work the fuse box in. Any input on that? Attachments:

I just bought a plug from that same guy via a different site. I had to do a lot of digging to find him, but I finally did. Figures the day after I finally find it, it would be posted on ebay haha.

Just an update: bike is almost complete everything is built and finished except the motor and the wiring. Just put the cases back together on the motor last week, waiting on a ball hone before doing the top end. I'm stuck at the wiring again.
Would anyone with a working knowledge of bike wiring be willing to help? I'm in the southport area and I think half an hour of your time would suffice. I can compensate if you want a little cash for your time as well. I'm tired of just looking at this bike, I'm trying to give her life by weeks end.

I'm finishing up the motor tonight, but I thought I'd post some pictures of what I've got right now. The tank is with the welder right now getting a crack fixed. I did the whole bike bare metal with a clear coat because I'm a big fan of rat style and bobbers but I wanted something simple and comfortable like the street-tracker style. I put dirt bike bars on and cut them down a few inches on each side so they're comfortable on such a small bike. I also picked up some scrap metal from Warner Steel and made my seat pan, fender, splash guard, and headlight mounts. I wanted to make all the parts myself because a.) I like the rough look of it and b.) I want to be able to take all the blame or credit for how she turns out. Attachments:

I made a battery box out of some stuff I had around to make a mailbox. I'm redoing it out of an old ammunition box from wwII, but I have to get it welded to fit. You can see I mounted it out of the way so my pod air filters will fit. Attachments:

And this is my progress on the motor so far. We got the cases back together but forgot one sprocket for the kick start so had to crack them back open, place it, and put them back together. Tonight we put the top end together and Thursday I'm having a mechanic come look at my wiring so I can get everything hooked up. Then I'm going to KICK THIS MOTHER TO LIFE. Attachments:
