Is all of that wiring that fit nicely in a rubber boot when I had a faring supposed to fit in the headlight bucket? Seriously.
yup i believe it is. i was seriously thinking of eliminating my fairings but noticed the same thing which was one of the reasons i decided to keep the fairing on.
It will but you have to wiggle it all in. Its a little tight but do able.
:) Yep it all fits in there pretty well... ;)
You have three "holes" in the back of the headlight bucket.
The top one takes the wires coming from your gauges and handlebar switches and (as you look at your Vision from the front) one part of the main wire loom comes into the left and one to the right "holes" at the bottom of the bucket. They are all colour coded and fairly straight forward to reconnect up again. If in any doubt, use wire markers before you disconnect anything... ;)

Thanks. I actually did get it all in there, and after trouble shooting a problem with my front brake activating the brake light (ohmed-out the switch, tested the circuit and discovered I had crossed up two brown wires)--it all eventually worked in preparation for my Virginia vehicle safety inspection. I'm just really concerned about the effect the heat of the headlight might have on the plastic insulation. I really do like the "naked" look of the bike. Thanks again for the parts, Tiger.

8) Good to know that you got her sorted...don't worry about the heat from the headlight on the internal wire's as all naked Visions have run that way for 27 years and, as far as I'm aware, none have burst in to flames :o ;)
Glad I could help you with the parts that you needed... 8)
