I use alumslip and no loctite, stainless stud kit.

Yamaha 2F31496800 looks very similar, CMSNL have 2 at the mo.

Ticking the mods off the list. The new loom is now finished, I fitted a spade type fuse box for ease and convenience. The coils and headlamp are powered by micro relays which are tidily tucked away out of sight. Pattern Reg/Rec from Zpower was giving some strange voltage outputs - this has now been ...
