Hi all,
I'm a relatively new owner of a 1997 Valk Tourer and have been reading this site for most of a year.  I've found a lot of great info and have already learned much from the years of experience here on this board.

My issue is I was looking to do the ect mod with the pot as shown in ShopTalk.  I understand the diode shown is there to keep the rpm from jumping up when you put the bike in neutral.  I have seen the discussion of placing another diode to keep the rpm from jumping when you pull in the clutch.  I'm not sure where this second diode goes because I can't access any of the pictures that were shown in these threads from a couple of years ago. Undecided

Any help would be appreciated!

This is the information I used to add the clutch switch, it's quoted from a post by BlueValk in an old thread from 2013.

"The anode of the second diode connects to the same wire as the first diode (from the neutral switch).  The cathode end connects to a wire from the clutch and I believe, it is in the headlight assembly.  It is a 9-pin connector.   The wire is Blue coming from the clutch and is G/R on the other side of the 9-pin connector."
