You just need to get battery voltage to the black wire. Run a wire from the battery post to any black wire in the harness: brake light switch, starter relay, neutral light socket(in the headlight), turn signal flasher. Old wiring diagrams show two black wires on the horn, one is power and the other is grounded by the horn button, best be careful there.

Hot wiring
An in line fuse would be a good idea, you should be able to incorporate the existing one with a bit of thought.
