[QUOTE="kirrbby, post: 170007, member: 3972"] The stators with 2 yellows are the "floating ground" type. I was told that some pitbikes have the motors that are mounted in rubber, so the engine is not grounded to the frame. In that case you have to run the power AND the ground, to each light, direct from the stator. But our bikes engines ARE grounded to the frame. The lights, most, get their grounds from the frame. Turn signals, and TL/BL, only have one wire running to them which supplies power, they get the ground from the frame thru their mounting, or a wire jumped from their mounting to the frame. That changes how the, 2 yellow wire, stators work. If you were to use both of those yellows as 2 separate power supply's, on our bikes, you would have to "float the grounds" to each light. We need JPardue to pipe in here... Or maybe adamnlv...racerx...dirtbiker188...allenp [/QUOTE]
