Nope in this case pink = hi beam.
This should be the set up and I'll also explain why it seems the yellow is ground. Being it comes for the R/R routed to the stator the final end is the last coil to ground. If he runs any lights off the black and assumes the yellow is ground and uses it as such he'll eventually melt the system down.
This is/should be the set up.
Pink = hi beam
Black = 12Vdc from battery with key on
Yellow = R/R input DC
blue/white = lo beam
brown = side running and/or tail lights also could be instrument lights
It's possible the pink and blue/white could be opposite as pink = lo beam but I doubt it.
So why the black 12Vdc feed if you run the lights off of the stator/R/R when running? Black = what the Chinese call passing light and the switch should go to this part or even have a separate little spring loaded switch that when pressed sends 12Vdc to the hi beam only. The theory is brighten you light so someone can see it and know you are going to pass them.
The lo beam = blue/white should come on with the scooter running and stay on in both positions, lo only and lo/hi together, only the hi beam goes off when the switch is moved to the lo beam position.
The yellow should be placed on the switch so that when the scooter starts you should have a lo beam and tail lights along with other lights fed by the brown wire. Then the yellow have a little jumper that puts it on the hi beam part of the switch opposite the pink wire.
The black will go to the part of the switch that is the passing part and then feed a little jumper that should tie in to the pink.

pink - unknown (not connected)
black - positive from ignition
yellow - negative (not connected)
blue/white - main headlight
brown - side lights
This is only partly correct if it follows as most. There should be no ground to the light switch, period.
Do this test, start the scooter and see if you have voltage on the "yellow" wire with the volt meter black lead grounded to a true ground like the negative side of the battery. You must start the scooter to do this test.
If you do then I'll tell you how to wire this correctly. Will be gone this afternoon for a spell but will check back in.

In all of this story you mentioned 2 things that stand out, sitting for 10 months, salt water = corroded non-working starter. Betting money the starter can be taken apart cleaned and all will work and yes Jack said it!  JR |

If I were to "go big" again... I must admit, I'm partial to the Victory and the Indian line-up. Might want to hurry and get one?
As the article says:
Minnesota-based Polaris Industries reprises the Indian brand — a rival of Harley-Davidson before it went out of business in 1953 — with a new line of heavyweight bikes that are thoroughly modern but linked to the past.

Hey folks while all fun is great this poster did in fact ask questions about issues with his scooter and let's try to help him if we can. lb50qt22riderWhen you do indeed get your connectors in please let us know and we'll start walking through this until you get it running. JR |

Will tell you this story and you'll laugh your butt off but I saved a ton of money doing this. All the new energy saving light bulbs you buy now with the they last 7 years BS warranty on the package? Never happen but if you call the toll free number on the package and tell them the bulb went out and it's only 6 years, 364 days 11 hours 59 minutes, and 59 seconds old they will send you free replacement coupons! Yep! During the bad ice weather and the electricity going on and off it makes these bulbs go bad.
Screw them out. If you keep one package you'll have barcode, if you don't bulb has code number on it. I buy all GE bulbs now, Sylvania will do the same but they are cheap jerks and send you coupons for one single bulb, but not GE!
So over the last few months when a bulb goes out, I pile them up and make one call to GE (can get 800 number off the net). I got 5 bulbs out including 2 of the high dollar ceiling fan light bulbs. Call them up, nice people in 5 days I get six $8 coupons for a free package of bulbs up to $8 and two $10 coupons for the same.
Now the coupons are good for only one package, it doesn't matter if the package is one bulb or 50, one package. If the package is say $9 you pay the difference plus tax. You pay the tax any way. I use 60W bulbs and a 75W and 100W in a place or two. These bulbs are expensive and old regular bulbs are being phased out. I have a ceiling fan with 2 to 3 light bulbs in every room and they have a different smaller screw in base and the things are around $5 a piece.
So before my granddaughter's softball game yesterday we went early to wally world, they sell GE but not much Sylvania. Got 4 packages of ceiling fan bulbs 2 to a pack, each $6.96 each, and get this for whatever reason WalMart had 10 packs, yes 10 packs of regular 60W light bulbs regularly $18 a pack marked down to $8 a pack! I get 4 of them with the rest of my coupons. I come home with 48 light bulbs that I paid less than $5 tax on! The lady at the counter couldn't help it she finally asked me how I got all these coupons for free packages of bulbs? I picked up one of the packs and let her look at the 7 year warranty and the toll free number and told her that's how. A guy next to me said "they actually honor that warranty and it's not a bunch of BS?" I told him to ask the lady how many coupons I just cashed in and she looked at him and said $68 worth!
I also have 2 sylvainia $5 coupons left and 3 more burnt out sylvaina bulbs on my desk! Going to call those cheap jerks back tomorrow. I know Home Depot sells Sylvania. I'm never going to buy a light bulb again!
BTW on the average these bulbs with normal use will last about 2 years, they'll wake up and see this and the 7 year fun will be gone so ya better hurry if a bulb goes out and get your coupons and start stock piling like I do!

Alley that's the same thing, got to pay. I have the ATV Breeze owner and service manual and I could put it here but they are useless as far as what he needs to know. Even though they have good info on taking care of the engine, etc. there are no torque specs at all. Yamaha is funny, they make owner, service and then the workshop/repair manuals which are for their techs which do give all specs including torque values. Also I did some reading and found out that the Breeze has ben rebranded to the Raptor YFM125 and they make this model all the way up to 700cc. The engine on the Raptor is a identical 125cc to the Breeze. So if we can find a Raptor 125 workshop/repair manual we'll be cooking!  JR |
