Wiring a Main Fuse in an Early /5

[bprivett]

Hey everyone,

I'm currently reworking the wiring in a '71 /5, which has no main fuse. I'd like to wire one in per the later models, but am having trouble figuring out the best way to do it and what amperage I need.

Anyone do this willing to offer advice?

Thanks!

Edit: Found my answer here: http://bmwmotorcycletech.info/electricalhints.htm , I swear I looked first but must've missed it.

Snowbum also has an electrical diagram of the fused version of the /5 here:

That will also give you a visual of where the fuses are connected in the circuits.
