Ralph Ferrand wrote a series of articles about motorcycles electrics which was published in Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Magazine between September 2016 and February 2017. We have now persuaded CMM to put them together in a downloadable format for a bargin price.

Electronic Flasher Relay for ALL 2 Pin 12 Volt Indicators

Electronic Flasher Relay for ALL 2 Pin 12 Volt Indicators

Bi-metal strip mechanical indicators are now a thing of the past. Electronic relays are not dependant on the wattage of the bulbs or LEDs or ambient temperature to determin the flash speed. They jsut flash at the same speed come rain or shine. These units came into us with a 3 way 2.8mm mini connector with two terminals which suits many Yamahas, Hondas and KTMs. We decided to include the terminal and connector so that you can replace the plug on your bike if it's different, so this will suit any two pin system up to 150watts and we have never seen an indicator system that pulled more than 150watts.

If you connect it the wrong way around then it won't work; so swap the wires around if it doesn't work and that will solve the problem.

1mm² Thin Wall Cable

1mm² Thin Wall Cable

16amp PVC insulated thin wall wire. This cable has 32 strands of 0.2mm premium copper conductor . The thinner than standard insulation making it perfect for motorcyle wiring. It allows groups of cable to be more flexible and take up less space. When looms are thinner they are less likely to get trapped and damaged. This the commonest wire size on motorcycles.

We supply cable by the metre so you only need buy what you need.

When you have cables with a second, thinner colour, this is known as a tracer. For example if you require a black cable with a yellow tracer (Kawasaki ground) then you order black/yellow ie the tracer is the second colour.

4 Pin 20 Amp Micro Relay

4 Pin 20 Amp Micro Relay

Micro relays are perfect for motorcycles where there is always a space and weight issue. Very rarely will you ever need more than 20amps (240watts @ 12 volts). Very often horns use more current than is wise to draw through the handle bar switch, especially if you use a louder snail horn or similar to make your presense on the road apparent to the seemingly psychopathic car drivers out to get you.

Relays are very simple to use. Below is a very simple diagram showing how a relay is used to switch a lamp.What you are doing is to draw a very low current through your handle bar switch to power an elctromagnet which operates a much heavier switch to power the load.

5 Pin 20 Amp Micro Relay

5 Pin 20 Amp Micro Relay

This relay is the same as the one above except that when the coil is energised by the handlebar or other switch, it can be used to turn off another load as well as switching on the first. They are not as commonly used on bikes, but they do have their uses, for instance if you fitted day running LED lights to your bike you might want to switch them off when you switched on the main head lamp.

Micro Relay Plug

Micro Relay Plug

Whilst you can use female spade terminals to collect to a relay, these relay bases or plugs make life a lot easier and neater. These bases can be screwed, bolted or riveted to the bike eg the battery box making it easier to replace a relay should it fail
