I use 55W lamps on their own separate circuit, that way if the headlamp burns out, I still have lights left to use.

Like the diagram says, From the battery connect to post #30. Use an 15 amp inline fuse here.
#85 is the relays ground.
#86 is the relays trigger. Connect this to the high beam wire in the headlight bucket.
#87 is the power out of the relay. Connect it to the spotlights.
You can put the relay just about anywhere. I put mine under the seat.
As a final conclusion to this story, I bought a relay kit yesterday for £9.99 ($17 approx) which contained all the bits I needed. I followed your instructions and I now have exactly what I wanted...!!! Thanks again!

Light bar change

I have a 2012 Nomad, and the previous owner put an aftermarket light bar with driving lights above the turn signals. The bracket is so cheaply made, that the vibration from the bike put stress on the metal plate that bolts to the bike, and it broke. I have the stock Kawasaki bracket and stock turn signals that I want to put on the bike. When I opened the head light, I noticed that the turn signals were connected to the wiring harness by electrical tape, and the connection to the harness still had the plugs attached. That's great, just unplug the aftermarket ones, plug in the new. The problem I have is that the driving lights are wired to a "module" in the back of the headlight. There are two red wires coming from the module, one for the right light, one for the left light. Now, I do not want to run the lights, so what do I do with the red wires?
