Here's a freebie. I was tracing some wiring on the wiring schematic in the factory manual. What a pain as all those black lines are easy to get mixed up with each other. So I scanned the wiring diagram and opened it in Microsoft Paint. I traced the wiring with colored lines that come as close as I can to the color of the wire.

Taken from another old-school master,
https://www.hdforums.com/forum/engin...pe-how-to.html
Drag pipes suck...ya ya I know. Especially 2" drags. S&S specifically calls them out as "never recommended" But that is what I have, and wanted to tune the carb and help smooth out the flat torque spots... so this was the first step.
I added the brass wing-nut as it fits the rest of the bike. Total cost $4.23. The baffles are tunable, simply adjust the angle of the 1/4x20 thumb screw and go for a ride.

That is a good one vetto.
In the sixties just about everyone was runnin with straights.
Or if the heat was on, we would gut some shorties
and run the tuneable washers.
We used a large flat washer as opposed to the thumbscrew.

good job dave.
I do the same thing for my tired old eyes.
Here's an example when I was troubleshooting the start circuit
(really tired eyes can click the picture for larger image)

I hadn't read the posts above mine...didn't realize you had done something similarly (but better). I wasn't trying to hijack your thread....I apologize...

You're not hijacking anything Dave.
Your colorized schematic looks great.

good job Dave
