Electrical

I bought some new headlight bulbs and fiddled with the headlight and switch. All circuits seemed to be getting juice, but I blew out the pilot bulb. The larger bulb, only one filament of two works. So at least I have a light burning. 

Since I am going to replace the whole harness when I rebuild, I'm not going to put a lot of effort into tracking down this problem.

I did find out the headlight and switch is original SIEM equipment. The reflector is peeling, so it will need to be resurfaced.

When I bought the bulbs, I also got the correct taillight for my scooter, it being a clean but used SIEM unit. I also bought a cable set for the rebuild and in case one breaks before then.
