Bloody hell Mikey...and you call me Mr Bling, with all the polishing i've had done :lol:[/quote]


Actually guy you are still mr bling, as those who have seen it in the
flesh say "considering what you do for a job theres not much bling on it"
and its true on this one even some bits that were chromed as standard
are being done gloss or satin powder coat black.

Guess it must be like working in a sweet shop when its all around you
you dont want it :lol:

Comming along real nice Mikey looks the biz :resp .Looks like youve got your work cut out with that wiring harness :shock:
seems like there is a few extra connectors that dont look like they belong. When you get it sorted I found some great stuff
to re- wrap the harness :up dont know if youve used it before but its non adhesive wiring loom tape on ebay
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Harness-Loom- ... 20c3261f6f
I used it on my harness and works a treat.
Non adhesive means the harness stays quite flexible when wrapped just use a bit of PVC electrical black tape to
secure the ends. Nice gloss black finish too so it looks very smart and quite like the original stuff. Keep the photos coming matey :clap

Cheers dave, all the extra connectors you speak of are for things
like the electronic speedo and rev counter and the fuel gauge
which im going to junk and fit a set of Z1000 clocks, and as the fuel tap has a reserve position no need for the fuel gauge either, never did work right anyway. :lol:

And to be fair the leccys werent giving any problems just the loom looks a bit tatty and one block connector needs replacing.
