Replacement wiring harness

03 Aug 2009 10:53

I'm looking to replace the entire harness on my 77' KZ1000 with a modern equivalent. I don't care about originality, I just want a simpler, more reliable harness. Anyone know where I can find something like this and if so do you have any experience with one? Thanks in advance.

There is a eBay seller that sells new harnesses for that bike just look in "parts" KZ 1000.

Thanks guys. That's something like what I'm looking for, but what I'd really like to find is something that doesn't have all the connections in between the two main parts of the harness. I'll keep looking but I may just have to do a complete harness from scratch. :ohmy:
