In this video we show you how to install Japanese motorcycle bullet connectors as well as other types of electrical connectors common to vintage Honda CB350, CB360, CB450, CB550 and CB750 wiring harness. A quick review of the various tools and supplies that we use leads us into the proper repair procedures: wire stripping, soldering, crimping, heat-shrinking. These are necessary techniques to properly fix and modify any motorcycle wiring harness.
We have also put together an electrical connector and repair kit with all the right terminals and wire needed to make the job easy.

Very comfortable presentation, felt like I was hangin' out watching you work. Great lesson, nice work. Finally! Out of all the videos I've watched that included soldering you are the first in my recollection to describe *and* demonstrate the correct method of applying heat and solder. Worth adding that a good solder joint will be shiny, the grungy looking ones are cold solder, poor contact, and easily broken. Thanks for doing this, much appreciated.
Thanks for a great video as a hobbyist with vintage bikes its easy to forgo the basics such as wiring. You guys are the best 👌
Great content, narration, sound and lighting; a pleasure to watch.
Great demonstration. Your patient and practical. Keep up the good work.
You're not Brenden, you're Eric Wareheim. You can't fool us! LOL
That was very useful and nicely presented. Thank you.
Great demos. I sure would like to see tin or silver plated wire. When I see beautiful shiny copper I then see green corrosion….
Is there great difference in the quality of the terminal / connectors? How important is it on a Honda to use the bullet-type terminals vs auto type that are soldered well as you do here?
Wonderful video. Thanks for taking the time to make!
Hey Brenden: Another great video, thanks. One question - I notice that you don't use any flux - is there a reason for not using it?
I've always wondered about this as well.
Perfect. thank you, I will have greater confidence now.
Did Honda solder the connections at the factory? I tried to solder a couple of my connections but failed miserably. I think my iron isn't hot enough. I found it especially difficult trying to solder a broken wire together that was on the bike... so I couldn't take it the bench to work on it. I'm getting ready to ditch that cheap blue plastic splicer that came with my Dyna S ignition and tap into the main ignition wire properly.
"Crimpin' ain't easy." lol
Can you help me...I was wondering what gauge wire would an auxiliary unswitched extra lead use in the headlight bucket...I need to know to buy the right male quick connect...Thanks
Great video! Thank you!
Merci, very useful.
I've got a 1993 harley sportster 883..swapping out the stock steering for a 6 over springer (TCBros ) i can't find a specific depinning tool to remove the harness from the headlight bucket ..any suggestions..??
Do you do a complete kit for making a new loom for a cb175 1973 usa model please? I am in the UK.
We don't unfortunately! Most of the OEM harnesses we see are in pretty great shape though. I'd recommend picking up a good shape used one and just fixing and cleaning it up a bit vs. starting from stratch.
So I’ve used a circuit tester and it shows current but when I hook the harness together my bike still isn’t getting power. I’ve checked everything a million times over any ideas?
Muchas gracias por compartir tus conocimientos... son de gran utilidad.
great video! was really helpful and informative! will be using on my custom bike! and has anyone ever told you, you look like Bert from big bang theory ? XD
are the tube joiners for heat shrinking??
Good morning, it's too bad you didn't have closed captions, I would have like to have seen what you said!
Hi can u add a fuel sender to a motorbike that has never had one and how please . I have a sfm zz125cc and dont have one fron new and its a 2014 but need one please help
Great video, need to rewire XS650
Same
How do I know what gauge wire to use? I'm new to this stuff, and I want to do it right the first time. Thanks.
EnjoyTheRideWithMe most of the wires in the bike is 16 gauge. Items like starters use much larger wires since they draw large current
Thank you. I appreciate your videos so much! I realize that's what you are working with in the video, 16 gauge, but I didn't want to assume. Is there a way to look at a wire and know what gauge it is? The stuff on my bike is pretty old and beat up, so I'm seeing nothing written on the housing.
Great vid!
thank you so much
Awesome video!! Thanks for this, very helpful!
good video
Do you know of a motorcycle wiring diagram software?
Nice job, thanks. The "plastic" around the copper is called the insulation.
You can get heat shrink tubing which is lined with an adhesive coating, which melts and seals as it shrinks, leaving you with a completely waterproof connection on a splice joint
Love the adhesive coated heat shrink! Its pricey but fantastic

nice
"Crimping ain't easy "
You're the only one who got it...lol "crimpin' aint easy"
Pimpin ain't easy
You don't solder a crimped connector.
lol, Crimpin’ ain’t easy.
Great video. So well explained and shown.
