Race Wiring Harness

[pro-rider46]

hey everyone, i just made a race harness for my 05 kicker, i cut out everything not needed for racers, it only is enought for the bike to run.

tell me what you think.

[hondaracing_13]

Looks good I did the same for a guy back in March.

[859davidt]

Do you still use the rectifier? Do you still use the 3 wire clip to the carb?

[pro-rider46]

i dont have the regulator/rectifier on the quad at the moment, but i plan on putting it on when i get something requiring power, im not going to say what cause my competition browses this forum too.

ya the tps is still wired in.

if your talking about me steve, remeber that i ride yamaha so it will beat yours. and if your talking about needing your regulator for nitrous you are one dumb @$$ for getting it.

wrong, and wrong. remember your in the wrong section here, watch what you say about hondas

[quadracer118]

can you get me a diagram on what to cut and what not to cut im looking to make an mx harness like that

[pro-rider46]

the highlighted wires are the only ones that you need.

i know this is a old thread but im doing this to my harness right now following your diagram but im wondering what i keep for a prodesign killswitch?

[eastside 400]

i wired my killswitch into the ignition switch circuit, basically replace the key with the killswitch

[Wills77]

i already have it stripped down following that diagram... and it already had the key and some other things cut off of it when i got it so im kindof lost onhow to wire a killswitch back into it now

im in the same position as that guy. i dont know where to wire it in at.

[EchoRocket]

which color wires are you wiring the killswitch into.. and also, I am using an 05 CRF450 carb that has a triangle TPS plug on it and the harness from the TRX is a flat style, and the wire colors are different. Could anyone tell me what is what....

Thanks
Chris

let me know if you figure it out...ill do the same haha

[gnhmoto]

Does anyone know where to wire a kill switch into. my harness doesnt have the key or anything on it. its a race harness with out the killswitch wired in yet.

[Wills77]

i pmd pro-rider46 about wiring a killswitch into a trimmed harness and heres his reply

you can either splice into the black wire with a white stripe right off the cdi, and then ground the other side of the killswitch. or you can buy some 1/4" spade connectors, and put a male, and female spade connectors on the red side of the killswitch, and put the female connector on the male connector of the coil. then put the male connector from the killswitch into the female connector of the wiring harness, then ground the ground side of the killswitch to the frame where ever you want. its all preference. both work good.

What is the plus's to simplifying you wiring harness? I mean does it really help they way your quad runs or is it just to make things easier to work on?

[eastside 400]

just makes it cleaner, less chances for problems since you can eliminate alot of pieces. i do mine but i leave all the fan and everything in it, i just get rid off all the excess wires for lights and everything

[/infamous/]

Is it pretty easy to do? I dont wanna get into a mess

[eastside 400]

if you dont know how to read a wire diagram then dont do it, it looks like everyone just logs online, reads something and then goes and hacks theirs apart and wrecks it. if you understand wire diagrams 100% then go for it. but most people cannot. i dont get why people think they know everything after they read 1 post.

[/infamous/]

I understand the wiring diagram. But i understand what your saying, thats why i was asking questions first. LOL

[miles Machine]

indeed eastside 400...i see alot of post on here about i did this and now i cant get it to do this or it dosnt work right now....if ppl dont understand what there trying to do just leave it alone lol

[/infamous/]

"Why fix something thats not briken" lol Thats what the people that screw it up need to here.

So this will work to wire a Pro Armor kill switch? i have no key switch either, the whole dash was removed.

Thanks
Josh

[desratt]

mine is finished and works great.
on a 09 kicker.. 2 plugs into cdi, 1 into coil, 1 to alternation, 1 fir teather kill switch

[bigmike1500]

What did you have to do with the on/off switch? I am looking to clean up my harness and bars some, and want to get rid of it.

I want it so I can turn on the key, grab the clutch kick it over.

How do you shut the bike down? Just stall it? Turn the key off?

[desratt]

no key I can use the tether kill as the key.

[440ex. ehhh!!]

and what do u have the tether switch wired into??? i have a pro armor one that i want to put on my 05 450r that i took off my 440ex. i don't have a repair manual yet, so i have no clue what to cut into.
any help?/??

thanks
Josh

I have the 06+ and the 04/05 service manual posted HERE (http://450rtech.com/forums/index.php?/topic/10-usefull-links-and-downloads/)

I also have a thread for a tether switch install in there too... I use a Pro Armor but they all wire up the same.
HERE (http://450rtech.com/forums/index.php?/topic/38-tether-kill-switch-installation/) it is...

You might have to sign up to the forum to view the thread...

[440ex. ehhh!!]

yea i had to sign up to that forum, but thats great, thanks a lot for the link ot the service manual!

[Baileygunns]

It's all good... Post up over there. Some really good people and it's still a small family.

[440ex. ehhh!!]

sounds good! because in the 3 weeks i have been looking on the 450 subforum and have had a 450r, it doesn't seem like there are many people looking to give up any info :confused: at least compared to the 400ex forum on here. :p
