In the early models (typically, 1993-earlier), **components were grounded to the frame** at a nearby point while power was distributed throughout the system on a minimal number of wires in the wiring harness. There could be as many as a dozen points on the frame used for grounding. The front lights & instruments were grounded thru a connecting strap between the fork risers & the handlebars. | In the early models (typically, 1993-earlier), **components were grounded to the frame** at a nearby point while power was distributed throughout the system on a minimal number of wires in the wiring harness.

**Beginning in 1994**, the wiring harness itself began to carry ground wires to various components. The wiring harness by then consisted of many separate power wires to multiple locations, with a number of circuit breakers protecting the various circuits from overload. | **Beginning in 1994**, the wiring harness itself began to carry ground wires to various components.
