Title: Wiring harness - Request for 3 prototype testers
Post by: All250R on October 11, 2019, 12:21:07 AM
I'm looking to begin production of a reproduction wiring harness as part of a broader restoration effort branded All250R "R2".
I will provide 3 free harnesses to testers for feedback that can commit to the following requirements:

Requirements from you:
1) The harness is mounted and all electrical functions tested while riding within 10 days of receipt.
2) A photo is taken of the installed harness and emailed with your thoughts on quality, suggestions, and any issues.
3) All 3 will either be 88 or 89 style. Your stator can be converted with OE parts to an 89 for free.
4) Choose between red/black or all black.
5) The harness is yours to keep. It is branded, "All250R R2", with prototype serial number and should remain afixed in case you request support in the future.

Main quality features:
1) All precision parts are OE or OEM, Japan or US, (not fake china etc). This helps ensure that dimensions, tolerances, terminal plating are within OE/OEM specification and quality assurance standards.
2) All lengths and fitment within 2mm of OE harness.
3) Overall quality exceeds the OE Honda harness.

Manufacturer:
All connector housings: OE
All connector pins, coil/flag terminals, and bullets: OE or OEM
Ring terminal: made in Japan
Bullet and flag terminal boots (sealed black): OE
Bullet boots taillight (sealed clear): made in Japan
Wire: made in US
Heatshink: OEM made in Japan
Black connector boot: made in Taiwan, the only reproduction part

Wire quality:
Wires have more copper than OE particularly in ignition and lighting circuits
Wiring insulator is cross linked polyethelene, more durable than OE insulation

Other quality:
No solder. All terminals are crimped like OE
All electrical joints are sealed after crimping.

note:
OE: Original Equipment - the same part that came from Honda
OEM: OE Manufacturer - not the same part that came from Honda, but makes other OE parts.

so you want headlights/taillights/ stator/ and OEM key switch still on bike?  no CR ignition
does it have a connection for aftermarket kill tether? 

my 88 duner might be what you are looking for

Nice write up and detail!  I only have CR ignitions and no lights so probably not the tester you're looking for. 

That being said, will you sell some of those bullet connectors (or point me to where you buy them)?  I'm running low and haven't seen them online in a while.  Thanks!

Dimensionally and feature-wise it's an exact reproduction of the OE harness, so there's no calculation made for aftermarket products. I'll collect feature requests over time and look to meet those demands where it makes a useful impact.
For it to be worth the cost of production and shipping, I want people who can provide complete feedback. Let me know if that's something you can do.
Thanks!

I have an all stock (electrically) 86, I'd be willing to do this.

A couple more pictures installed on a running R. There are two more slots available.

I converted an 88 stator today to 89. While I was there I found that the ignition wire wasn't crimpted properly at fhe factory surprisingly and a few wire strands had broken.
If you like I can look at your stator and refurbish the connectors if needed. A quality harness with new connectors is only one half obviously. The stator side should be in good shape as well ideally.

If you need another tester, I have an all stock 89 I can test for you.

@All250R are you still redoing the stators?

Thanks
