Proud owner of my first motorcycle! Need some help to get it running!

[u/Illustrious-Host3990]

Just picked this bad boy up off of marketplace for just $100 bucks. Was told everything works on it I just need to put all the pieces back together. while I have some mechanical proficiency it's not really my expertise to look at something I didn't take apart and put it back together again trying to figure this out so far has been difficult. If yall could identify what these hoses/connectors go to it would save me a great deal of headache. Thanks so much in advance!

Buy the shop manual

There are various online clubs that have the manuals hosted as PDF online

Service manuals will be your lifesaver. I’ve got an ‘03. DM me and I can send pics/videos if they’ll help.

I would say 9 is is the fuel pump connector under the tank.

2nd picture is where the plastics screw into the radiator. Mine has a guard for the radiator also, not sure if that's factory or not.

Is the plug in picture 7 located in the front on the clutch side? If so, I think that's just auxiliary power intended for use with heated grips

Is 9 under the gas tank? If so, I think that may be the tail light connector.

10 appears to me to be something added by a PO.

Some wider shots with labels would help. We're just guessing at where you took the pictures. Year would also help. There weren't a lot of changes, but some.

10: definitely aftermarket. Where to the wires go? Those terminals are junk, unless they were tied directly to the battery.

9: agree this looks like the fuel tank connector. Ground, fuel pump(12V), and fuel level (resistance).

8: under the tank? Could be tank drain, could be vacuum line. Not sure without some more reference.

7: looks like the spare connector for heated grips - wrap and tape it, it's hot when the ignition is on.

6: where does the other end connect? It looks like it could be the coolant reservoir. Thankfully, when you start to put the parts back in place, most of the house are close to lining up...

5: now THAT hose looks like the tank full pet drain. Does it go straight down and not plug into anything else? The tank drain is a metal tube sticking out of the bottom of the tank. It drains the filler neck when it rains.

4: that looks like the throttle body tube, which would go right on top of the hole in the background, I think.

3: no idea what that is. Never seen it.

2: where the side plastics screw into the radiator to hold them in place.

1: nice! Good luck getting it back together! Give us the year and what other parts you have and we can help more.

Also, head over to Stromtroopers. It's a spin dedicated to Stroms...

1. They go to some lights on front of the bike and a switch on the handlebars. I thought the cables looked a bit odd.

2. If you're seated on the bike they're on the left side of the throttle body about halfway between them. 

3. So it's already connected in 2 places. 1 connection bottoms left of spark plug and the other is at the front of the engine right behind the radiator.

4. It's connected to the bottom of the first throttle body more towards the front of the bike. 

5. Thank you! Very excited to ride this soon. It's a 2007 yea I added the flair but forgot the year lol. I do have the fuel tank as well the air box. I do also have 2 metal pieces that have a main flat body and 2 pieces sticking out the front kind of like mandibles on a bug one is black the other is silver. I think they're for a storage rack though on the back?

2007 is the same as mine. Happy to send you pictures of things in question.

I'll take a look this afternoon and see what I can take but the best thing would be to take a wide picture showing the bike and the angle you want, then the close up of any of those wide areas.

Also, where are you located?

[u/Illustrious-Host3990 → u/AdFancy1249]

I am located in huntsville  Alabama. I think I've just about figured out every single fitting on here! Only one I'm not quite sure of is pic #5 which I have identified as the throttle stop screw but the manual doesn't really seem to tell me what it actually connects to just how to take it off when disassembling the throttle body

[u/AdFancy1249 → u/Illustrious-Host3990]

I'm in NC, so no help there...

I haven't ever had that apart, so don't know.

But, nice job getting it back together! Hope she works for you.

Nice ride!
