white plug and insert it into the “audio in” on the side of the amp. Sit the
amp on top of the silver plate so when standing in front of the bike, the
power harness is on your left (aka the BRAKE SIDE of the bike). Re-install
the amp to the plate using the four screws removed earlier.
Also in Fig 1.2 is a white square which shows a smaller black 2 pin
factory plug. The orange wire from the amp has a plug that goes directly
into this factory harness. On the factory plug described, there may be
a factory plug with no wires already installed into it which will have to
be removed. The factory wire colors going into the plug are purple/
blue stripe and black and can be see under the factory sheathing. The
orange wire is the amplifier “turn on” lead and tells the amp to turn on/
off with the bike’s ignition. The amplifier will not turn on if this wire is not
hooked up to this (or any) switched B+ source!
Step #3: On the 4 pin black plug now installed into the amplified output on the
amp, locate the end with the green heat shrink and plug it directly into
the brake side speaker cabinet noting it will only go in one way. On the
8 pin plug now installed into the input socket on the amp, locate the end
with the green heat shrink and plug it directly into the factory connector
that originally plugged directly into the brake side speaker cabinet (has
pink/pink with black stripe wires).
Step #4: On the 4 pin black plug now installed into the amplified output on the
amp, locate the end with the yellow heat shrink and plug it directly into
the clutch side speaker cabinet noting it will only go in one way. On the
8 pin plug now installed into the input socket on the amp, locate the end
with the yellow heat shrink and plug it directly into the factory connector
that originally plugged directly into the clutch side speaker cabinet (has
pink/pink with black stripe wires).
The power/ground harness will pass together the inner fairing where the
main wire harness passes through on the brake side of the bike. Loosen
the tank’s “chrome console” and run wires up and over the gas tank,
but under the tank’s chrome console. There is a provision on the front of
the tank console for wires to pass. NOTE: Although not necessary, the
power and rear harnesses can go under the gas tank if you choose to
remove and re-install the tank.
