Hi guys,
My bike didn’t have the turn signals installed when I bought it. I don’t know where the flasher mounts. There is a metal tab at the front left of the battery box. And I also have one of those little rubber spare fuse holders (currently in my GT750 tool kit) if that belongs on the bike also?

No the bike doesn’t run yet. But on the plus side the Ralf clutch release arrived and what a difference that made! I can now pull in the clutch lever even with my crap hands.
I work on what I can when I can to have that much less to do later on. The bodywork is out at paint in the meantime so at least it will look nice.

Thanks
Mark

Signal relay mounts on the back side of the battery box on the left. Below the chain oiler tank. There should be a metal tab to mount the rubber holder on. That rubber fuse holder doesn't go with the 72 H2

Ok thanks, I see that one now. What is this one on the front, just a guide for wiring or something else?

Main fuse holder.

The on on the battery door is the fuse holder. the one on the front of the battery box is to hold the stator wires.

I think I have a wrong battery box door. The fuse holder will in no way fit in that loop, and the battery vent doesn't line up with either loop.

The fuse holders get bent inwards, and the bracket on the front of my battery box ('72, box could be a '73) holds a rubber spare fuse holder...........
