Hi Z1b Man,so would i be correct in that this brown becomes live when the ignition switch makes between white and brown? and is in turn regulated voltage wise inside the regulator by means of a defined voltage threshold Zener diode or similar dumping excess volts to ground,which keeps the main brown live feed to the bikes main system stable voltage wise?..Thanks in Advance Paul J
