Hello team,
I just need a bit of help here.
I got my CB750F2 and it didn't have a wiring harness fitted.
I got a new one from DSS but I have a question.
There are two sets of Green, Black and White wires. I've established one set goes to the regulator but where does the other set go?
And does it matter which set are fitted to the Regulator or are they both the same?
Hope that makes sense and thanks.

One of the bundles is actually Green, Black, and Gray...or at least it should be. It's really hard to tell but I think it's the one that doesn't appear to be wrapped up in tape. It's for the turn signal relay which, like the regulator has flat connectors. Not sure about the F2 but my K4 has a two prong relay so green on my new harness wasn't used.
 
I had the same problem with my F2 . Shine a light on the wiring and you can barely see the colour difference when they are together . Had mine all wrong and couldnt find out why the blinkers wouldnt work , nek minut I noticed the white wasnt white after all

I did exactly that, noticed that the 'white' wire was actually grey!!! Could you tell me what colour wires go to what pin on the relay please?
The three pins being X, L and P.
Thank you again.

Thanks for this, I realised that last night ha ha.
All I need to do now is sort out what colour wires go to what pins on the relay. X, L and P.
I much prefer nuts and bolts but I'm getting there.

X is hot, so Black.
L is switched, Gray.
P is the dash indicator ground, Green.

Attached image is from when I added signals to my '51 Chevy pickup. Turn signal relays are a standard layout though. Only difference is 2 pin vs 3, and some may also have an independent ground wire.

Thank you for this hinksy, and I guess that the dashlight still works? The green is just an earth from what I can see?

Just earth. A three prong relay needs it and a 2 prong doesn't. You can use either in this case.
If OE was 2 prong the dash indicator is not wired thru that ground and will still work.
