Both wires are the same size. The rectifier is missing, I’m having a job finding one, I think one of the red wires goes to it. I’m not sure how to upload a photo from my library. Do you think any 6v rectifier would do the job? Thanks

Hi, many thanks. I do have a Haynes manual but I don’t understand the wiring diagram. I’m not sure what red wire connects to the + on the battery.

Hi, please can a fellow owner either explain where the different battery wires go or better still, share a photo. I’ve just noticed there’s no rectifier on the bike so I’ll need to order one. At the moment I know the - goes to earth but I’m not sure where the + goes. The bike has two red and one white wire with bullet connections. thanks in advance

Hi and thanks for replying, the negative wire from battery has a male bullet connector on the end. There is a white wire coming from the loom with a female connector. Point taken regarding posting. Thanks

Me again! As I was tinkering earlier, the battery fell out and the cables got disconnected. The + is easy but what colour does the - connect to? There’s a white or a red. Also, I reconnected what I thought was the low oil warning light block, this is located near the oil tank. Once started, the horn stayed on. Slowly getting fed up! Thanks in advance

Arhh ok. Thanks Thank you

Hi and thanks for the reply. I will look into getting the oil pump working. One other thing, do you know what the fuel tap positions are? It shows “on” , “res” , and “pri”. It seems to start and run better when on “pri”

Hi and thanks for adding me to the group. I have a 1978 V75a, is it ok for the oil pump to be disconnected and run on pre mix? Pump already disconnected before I bought the bike I wasn’t sure if the oil was spraying directly into the internals. What is petrol/ oil ratio? What is the correct spark plug? Thanks
