It's a 1976 KE 175. I have no ignition, all I have is the 4 wires that end in the 4 prong plug, which connects to another plug on the back of the ignition. So, I'm not having a huge problem driving the thing, it starts fine without the ignition, but none of the lights work. So, I am stuck and need help. The wires are as follows:
Black/White = Ignition
Black/Yellow = Earth
White = Battery
Brown = Horn

So, all I want to do is to connect whichever wires I need to connect together in order to get the lights to turn on. I figured I'd just put a little switch in between there to make the lights turn on and off, but I don't know which ones (two?three? all of them?) to connect.

I also think that the wiring colors are the same on most older kawasakis, and at least some older hondas. Which ones do I wire together???

thanks!
 
Here is a wiring diagram... its for a '77, but its all pretty much the same thing. hope it helps!
 
Wire battery, ignition, and horn together, and connect the earth to the ground.
