Due to the fact that no one seemed to have a wiring harness for a 1972 K1 (A Honda OEM harness). I bought an OEM harness from David Silver that was for a 71 KO. My main switch was for my K1 a 72. I am new to Honda CTs but not bikes and unfortunately have found out that a 72 K1 switch is wired differently internally than a KO switch and will not work with a KO wire harness. Also the battery I bought has the connector for the 72 harness, the KO connector is much smaller on the older harness. I was able to salvage the old engine connector off my chopped up old K1 harness and I soldered it to the four battery leads on the new harness.
Here's the 64 thousand dollar question? If my harness and main switch are both for a 1971 KO, will they work in a 72 K1 bike?
I can get a KO switch YEAH I know it would be cheaper to get an aftermarket K1 harness...but I changed the battery plug! And I also when with the smaller KO tail light. Let the games begin!
