I have an american import DT 175 E. Yamaha have confirmed that it a 1978 model.

Did the american models have there lights on permanantley as  on the left hand control there is only the horn,indicator and HI - Lo switch.

There is only one position on the ignition ,on or off and there is no wiring on the harness for the usual sidelight.

Please can anyone confirm this.

Thank you. 

 

Yeh , your correct,  and the engine needs to be running, [ Ac lighting]  .    Uk bikes had 4 position iggy switch,

Don't mean to muddy the waters but I just checked in my manual and the F,G and H have lights on full time, the E has switchable lights.

Maybe there is some crossover, like the points thing?

Thanks for the reply fellas,I can stop looking for wires and switches that are not there now.
