1973 Tach warning lights?

Post by Repeater »

What does the "B" red light and "F" mean?

Road the bike for the first time today and the red "B" light would come on intermittently and the "F" light comes on when I try to use the right turn signal which does not work. I'm guessing "F" stands for fault?

Man this bike handles nice, but i have some tuning to do. It has allot of engine clank slap pop noise. It also smokes from both pipes something awful.

Brakes what are those :shock:

B is for Bright (High Beam) headlight. (White)
F is for Flasher (turn signal/directional). (Amber)
N is for Neutral. (Green)

No "warning" lights on the tach. Though I guess one could always wire one of them for low oil pressure. :wink:
