so ive got this bucket of poo that's a dr 350. it runs now but as soon as I drop it into gear it dies electrically...the sidestand switch has been removed years ago but does the wiring plug need bridging? is it under the tank? or under the sidecover?
-
Yes it does from memory ,under the seat near the rear of the tank I think

ive looked absa f*kn lutely everywhere for that plug, its like the wires were cut and hidden back in the wire loom. ive looked at lots of wiring diagrams that suggest either a green or a grey wire that reports to the cdi unit. ive run a light tester on to various wires and its seems no matter what wire it is, as soon as a gear is selected bye bye spark to everything :o
today while rummaging around behind the headlight I found a brown wire cut quite short as well as a black white earth wire near it, both cut off. "Im on it" I thought and yes there was power when kicking over (in neutral ) so I joined them, selected 2nd and kicked...:( no spark!! #%$@%#&* so im back to [] 1. I suspect now that the CDI is playing up.
so im thinking ill join the power wire to the neutral wire to fool it to thinking its in neutral.
