Default First bike and need some opinions and info!

I just bought my first bike. I got it for a steal but it needs some work. The previous owner took off the turn signals, mirrors and put on a cheap fender under tail kit. It also has a 52 tooth sprocket which makes highway riding almost impossible.

I am looking for some help in finding a complete under tail kit that will give me turn signals and a tail/brake light. And allow me to lock down my rear seat. Which right now doesn't lock or fit correctly.

I also need help on the wiring. If anyone has info or where to find a schematic diagram or something for the bike. I believe the fan has been hard wired and I cannot find the wires for the turn signals.

Thanks for anyone that can help and I can't wait to get this thing set to ride.

unless you have the extra cash get a undertail that uses the stock tail light and purchase one of reds integrated led tail lights they are very nice and hand crafted..

Can you tell me if that undertail allows the rear seat to be locked. I don't have much besides the lock cyclinder and a half *** retaining ring that still allows it to spin.

In fact all I have is the lock cylinder and the retaining clip. Nothing on the seat or bracket.

With mine, the speedo says 100 and I'm being passed by cars. Everytime I let off the throttle it wants slow down so hard it throws me forward. Not to mention I'm cruising at around 9k rpms.
