Some of the aftermarket relays are backwards. Opposite of the original mounting. They work fine, just need to trim some of the placid housing.

It does not run at the moment, hopefully I can change that soon. The guy I bought it from says It ran last summer but "he shorted the electrical system when he was trying to carve down an aftermarket starter relay". The guy said he's replaced a bunch of wiring, but hasn't quite got to the finish line. Any tips on where I should start with this bike to get it running again? Should I just replace the starter relay and go from there? I am very handy and plan on doing all of the work myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated! It has 47,000 miles on it and I have no idea about how it was maintained. I plan on replaced all of the spark plugs, flushing and replacing the engine oil and rear finish oil and air filter. Anything else in regards to "MUST REPLACE" that I should do? Any help would be greatly appreciated! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
