want to wire up lights tomorrow,i'm using the r1 loom(5vy) and it appears that the indicators should be straight forward but how do i go about wiring the sidelights/fog light?is it a simple case of finding a feed and fitting a switch.
i'm using the r1 switchgear.please keep any advice simple as electrics are not my forte
thanks andy

Depends on how much of the swich gear you want to use. Side lights shouldnt need a relay as they are low current and you could use the handlebar swich gear. Bike dont have fog lights so you will need an additional switch. I would wire the live feed from the dipped beam circuit.

Sidelights need to be from a permanent live where as fogs from switched live.
