Hi
This is a 1981 model, by the way. Yes, I did test with the engine running, I don't know which bulb wires to test, but it looked like white was ground, I had about .2v at idle and 1.0v when revved up.
the headlight was definitely burned out, so I have another ordered.
isn't there supposed to be a ground wire up on the handlebars, or is that just the '82s?
thanks for any help
David
