After countless hours and hours of searching through forums and videos trying to find a good post or description of someone hot wiring their bike I decided to elaborate on how to accomplish hot wiring.
The reason I needed to hot wire the bike in the first place is I bought the bike wrecked the whole front end was destroyed the ignition wires were cut flush with the ignition and the seller told me that the bike ran but he did not have any way of proving it. The new ignition was expected to arrive at my house in about 2 weeks and honestly I am a very impatient guy so I just had to know for sure whether it would start or not.
Please do not use this knowledge to steal someone else's bike. For one it's not cool and really think about what you are doing. Would you want someone to steal your bike expensive or not ?
I'll try to make this as simple as I can. This is on my 2005 Hayabusa.
Parts needed:
1) Wire strippers
2) 100 ohm resistor http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-5...0001&campid=5337943218&icep_item=172712797120
3) Wire cutters
(First picture) These wires coming out of that green connector are suppose to go into the ignition switch (where the key goes). You will want to cut back the black shielding, separate the wires, and (preferably with wire strippers) strip each of the wires back about a 1/4 of an inch. I did not have wire strippers on hand at the time so it looks like garbage.
(second picture) twist together all of the wires excluding the only black wire (ground), orange wire (power), and orange/YELLOW (THREE WIRES) the yellow is a little faint. Do not touch the orange (thicker) wire and black together. If you accidentally do don't panic just go get you another 30amp fuse and install it where the starter solenoid is. I do not have a picture of it but it is under the seat on the left hand side and it has a red connector going to it. Under that red connector is a green 30 amp fuse. Attach the 100 ohm resistor to your ORANGE / YELLOW wire.
(third picture) Next what you will want to do is attach the black wire and resistor to ground somewhere. I placed mine under the fairing mount because it was temporary just to start it. Finally touch your thick orange wire to the rest of the twisted wires and if your selector is in the run (meaning the kill switch on the hand handle bar) position you should hear the fuel pump engage and cluster come on. Now you should be able to hit the start button and if the bike is working properly then it will start. NOTE: If the black ground wire comes off its ground it will turn the bike off and you will have to reattach it to ground.
For the select few people that wish to have a keyless starting system crimp the wires to a more secure location (meaning the ground and resistor). Get a on / off toggle switch one end goes to the twisted wires and the other end connects to the thick orange wire. Hit the toggle switch into the ON position make sure your kill switch selector is on the ON position and hit the start button.
If anyone wants to put their 2 cents in or give some good information be my guest. From how many views these guys are getting on youtube and stuff obviously some people need this information. I know this is a Hayabusa forum but this same process works with the 1995 Kawasaki ZX7R.
Anyway, I hope yall enjoy =)
