Thanks,
I'm sticking with these switch guards as they weren't the cheapest!

Almost two full days of wiring!
All dash wires into terminal rails
These are the ends, crimp forks soldered on
Two 13 way plugs fitted on the end of the bike loom and fly leads out the other side to the rails
Engine loom in position and getting neater
Water pump removed, need to block the hole in the block, I'm going to run an electric water pump
And that's it, doesn't look a lot, got a few more plugs to fit and get my switches mounted then I will be linking the rails together, I
might get rid of the rails when it's all wiried but I will see, I did it this way as its all laid out and I'm hoping it will be easy to
keep track of

Wiring is the part of any build that scares me! You seen to have it under control though. Love it!

Awesome as usaul!
I can't remember seeing your brake light switch?
Only reason I mention it whilst your sorting wiring I would look into fitting a switch on the pedal rather than a pressure one in line.
One of my winter jobs,as I've found you can be braking without the lights coming on,you need to press pedal pretty hard to get lights on.
Last thing you want in one of these is some dippy driver in a Chelsea tractor rear ending you!

Got my electric water pump fitted and my painted pipes back on
Oh and I had to bore out some rubber grommets so the pipe fitted snug
Me and my Dad spent all day wiring, we got the indicators working and the tail lights, and got the digi dash powered up, hopefully another few
weekends and the bulk of the wiring should be done! We might try and get the engine started again next week to make sure it still runs!!!

Right, I've been busy on the wiring for the last few weeks, it's all done but needs tidying when I get my dash etc
I've taken it all off now as it was in the way a bit
Also stared on my tunnel panels
I'm using wing beading to brake the edges
Also got my hard pipes rivited in place
Oh and one last thing.............
My body work has been ordered!!!!! Yay

After seeing your pictures one thing puzzles me. Where exactly are you going to mount the Henry? And what are the performance benefits?
Still looking ace mate. Keep it up!

Right full day again today, first job, I wanted to add a throttle return spring so the pedal felt a bit harder
And it turned out like a dream
Then made a sump plug to fit my oil temp sensor, fitted it with thermal cpu compound to try and help heat transfer
Bleed hole
Then got the engine bay loom wrapped back up with pvc loom tape
Then finished fitting my tunnel panels, I decided to use rivnuts and bolt them, I've not used a lot as I'm going to use dots of sealer to
stop them rattling
Loom dropped back somewhere near

The most over engineered throttle return Spring I have ever seen! Love it! I guess it's somewhat adjustable too which would be useful. Great
work mate, keep it up!

Pedal back stops done
Then sorted my brake light switch, took me a while to hatch a plan but I think it will work ok
Nice and adjustable
Then a switch will be mounted above so as soon as the pedal is touched it releases the switch
That was yesterday, then tonight I've made a little battery tray on my dads cnc
In place, just needs a little fitting
The clamp will be bolted from underneath the floor and hold everything in

As above,spot on
One thing though,have you sat in the passenger seat with the battery where it is?
If anyone that's going to be a passenger is 6 foot+ they won't thank you for fitting the battery there!

Rosco, this is a lovely build, one of the best I've seen by far.
One little thing for you though, you need to have the horns pointing down or level so they don't fill with water. Just fitted mine this week and
the pack had that warning on.
Do you take orders on the engraved chassis numbers?
