I am working on a bobber basket case and I am having some trouble with all of the wires on this bike has anyone rewired one and eliminated any of the systems IE: clutch switch, kick stand switch ETC?

If you look at the schematics, you'll see where you need to short out the various relays. Two things to remember. (1) Use the correct guage cable. (2) What you're suggesting is DANGEROUS. Those switches are there for a reason. However, after that disclaimer, I must add that when I started riding (nearly 50 years ago) bikes didn't have any of those devices, & I don't recall anyone killing themselves.

Thanks for the tip I've been looking at the schematics and I think I am just going to use the old wiring harness that was in the bucket of motorcycle that I bought and hope it is all good
