Vf500 rebuild

Hi all
Please help
Just got the bike back together and runs really well.
However I have a connector that I think is the neutral switch.
I have touched it to the ground so the bike will start
But I can find out where it is located.
Can't believe this is causing me such an issue
Can anyone help with the location
Many thanks
Chris

 

On my 83 750 switch is on left side, right above transmission, connector is just past relay and r/r, if that is any help.

 

Thanks don't suppose u got a pic?

 

FSM should show the exact location.

 

Here is a couple thousand words, first, the switch
Then the other end of the wire:

Should be similar on the 500.

 

Not sure what you mean "I have touched it to the ground so the bike will start"??
My VF500 doesn't do this. Starter will turn the engine if the engine is in neutral or not.
There's no switch at the clutch lever like modern stuff has.

 

I can't find anywhere to locate it have a spare wiring loom and there is nothing to connect to?..
Pic attached hopefully

 

Another pic of where the cable come s from assume this is actually the neutral indicator

 

Come on someone must know just a pic ?

 

Ask "BluemoonerUK", the other 500 thread.

 

Sorry I don't know what you mean

 

Here are a couple of pics of where I think it should go.

 

That looks like it, sorry I mislead you with the 750 info, I guess the 500s are not a scaled down 750!

 

Haha I found it earlier tonight I put masking tape on it when I repainted
The engine but many thanks for your help
Cheers
Chris

 

Chris, could you upload a picture? I have the same issue at the moment

 

As per the two pics above posted by BluemoonerUK, same on most Honda's I've had the neutral switch is located to the rear of the clutch cover near the swingarm. It is attached to the end of the gearbox.

 

See attached hope this helps

 

Turn it 180 degrees first

 

this is my missing connector. I don't know where this goes to? FYI I placed a Magna model engine into my Interceptor, because it broke down and I thought that probably it wil fit! :biggrin:

 

Where does the other end go to? I have just taken a VF500F engine out of a frame and I don't recall that connector
