Hey all, I'm new to motorcycles and just bought an '85 454 for my first bike. I've been fixing a few things over the last week and had it almost ready to ride, but accidently fried the hot wire leading to the regulator/rectifier. There are a few other wires that must have been cut up over the years from previous owners, so I'm thinking about replacing the whole wiring harness. The question I have is will the wiring harness from other years fit my 1985? I've found several on ebay for other years, in particular one off a 1986 I'd like to buy but want to make sure it will work. Thanks for any comments/advice.

We have found that there are a few differences in the 89 and 90 models' wiring harness, but the 85 thru 87 would be the same. The reason the 89 & 90 models are a bit different is that those years were the "transition years" of the 454LTD to the Vulcan 500.
