I have this used, but very nice cloth-wrapped wiring harness, and am not sure what it is from. I acquired it from an estate, the owner had Norton Commandos and I got a few other parts for Commando and Triumph 650, but I couldn't get much more info. Any help is appreciated in identifying it. I will be selling it for a very good price but want to know what it is of course. I hope these photos are good enough, if any closer pics or colors are needed, let me know.

Thanks

Tom

The Zener wiring being up front would make it a late 60's bike with the Zener mounted under the lower yoke which was all the Triumph and BSA's. The White Brown wires being near the Zener wiring would put is as 69/70 Triumph with the ignition switch in the headlamp support Beyond that would be real crystal ball guesswork so guessing a 650 Triumph 69/70 with preference to 69 as the extra green and green black wires for optional indicator lamps are missing.

Thanks - that helps, I'll peruse wiring diagrams of that sort. I'll list it on Access Norton first, figure there are some Triumph owners here. As a community service. I sell more to pay it forward than to make a profit.

I did some research and it appears to be a '73-75 T140 harness. I mapped it all out and tagged each connector with painter's masking tape. Some had numbers glued on, some didn't. I am pretty sure it's a Lucas. I am gonna sell it, and include a brand-new oil pressure sender, for a fair bit less than half what a new one would cost. I am not able to post an ad here, I think I need to pay the piper (which I have before, and will again).
