I'm just wiring up the ZX12 and trying to keep as much of the wiring as possible.

At the front on the bike there is obviously the headlights with low and high beam but also a city light.

I think this light might always be on??, and if so I think the rears might always be on as they have the same feed.

I want to wire it up as follows:

City light -> Sidelights
Low beam -> Headlights
High beam -> High beam

Does this sound right or am I talking nonsense?

i don't know, but put a switch in the 'city light' and i don't think you can go far wrong
