Hi Guys - I just came into possession of a 1985 VN700, and am esctatic! The only problem is the headlight won't work. I replaced the fuse (which was blown), and now the running lights work, but the main headlight won't light. I know it is not the bulb, as I tried a different bulb which I know works.
Upon exploring, I found the 'reserve lighting device' on the right side of the bike. What the heck is this thing, and could it be causing my light not to work? Is there anything else that could be causing this problem? I'm at a loss - I'm no dummy when it comes to bikes, but this is killing me! Any help would be greatly appreciated, as riding time is winding down here in the mountains. Thanks in advance!
