looking for some wiring help

[rickoner]

hello. i guess i'll start off with a little background on what i've been messing with. i picked up a honda ruckus from a guy who bought it at an auction. it was a theft recovery that was in pretty poor condition. it barely ran and had some wiring modifications i.e. hot wired. this really didn't bother me because i was looking to do an engine swap anyways.
well i came upon a komoto 250cc scooter for a decent price, so i picked it up for my donor. it ran perfect and didn't have any problems at all. unfortunatly one of my best friends was tragically killed half way through my swap. i hurried up and through the wiring together so i could ride it during his funeral procession because he loved the project. from not taking my time and sorting everything out it had a problem that kept popping the main fuse. i let the scoot sit for a few months then started redoing the wiring. i wanted to add a fuse box in so everything would be on it's own circuit. after tearing the harness apart life got in the way again and after 5 or so months i can't figure out what the hell i was doing.
it's a cn250 clone and i've been searching for about two weeks for a schematic to follow but can't seem to find the right one. my main problems are the wiring for the regulator, cdi, and stator. i was hoping that someone might have a diagram or to guide me in what wire does what. if you need more info let me know. i could also take pics of the parts/connectors if that would help.
thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Welcome to SD, rickoner.

Here is a basic wiring diagram of my signature scoot. It has the CN250 engine:

thanks for the diagram. that helps alot. right off i have 2 questions.
#1 my regulator has an extra wire than what the diagram shows. it's a white wire on the regulator side and dark green on the harness side. any idea what this wire could be for?

#2 i never noticed the diode on the red wire from the regulator. could i pick a generic one up at radio shack or something? if so, what one as there are a few different ratings? could someone point me to the one i need?

Here is a picture of the regulator/rectifier (large heat sink) and the blocking diode (small heat sink) to the left.



This is a Honda Reflex clone using the Helix style engine. The Komoto is sort of a hybrid of a generic 150cc body with the Helix style engine if my research is correct. If your scoot has no headlight switch then you most likely should have a blocking diode like in the picture. Sometimes a red emergency flasher switch is used to fill the space where the headlight switch would normally be. The Honda Reflex clones usually use a 6 wire regulator/rectifier which is supported by the diagram I posted. I am not familiar with a 7 wire regulator/rectifier, but maybe a fellow scootdawg can help out.

The blocking diode keeps the headlights off until the engine is running instead of using the headlight switch. If you have a headlight switch, then you shouldn't have a blocking diode.

Rickoner here is an updated version of the CF Moto clone wiring daigram that 66 and I have been working on and you'll even see the fuses and where they go. Hope you have fixed the problems and if I can be of any help just let me know. Helped another dawg yesterday on the phone solve a problem with his. JRR
