Well, the wiring is nearly finished, still need to tidy some of the fittings and connections up, need to buy some thin wire to colour code the "breakout box" and some nice connectors to wire it into the main loom, also need to wire up the neutral and brake light, cut to length and then heat shrink it. I opted for Motogadget switches in the end due to them being a lot cheaper, they work well and I think look the part. Also got to measure the wire for the starter motor but have tested the circuit and that's works well.
I'm actually getting closer to starting the engine!

Yesterday I thought I'd nearly finished the loom, today will be spent undoing what I did yesterday and re-thinking.

I hate electrics!

Yep - they're the "work of the Devil" :shock:

Taken me over a year to sort out my current Z1000 project.... mainly down to apathy!
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

Just a quick one, as you all know I've been struggling with the electrics on this project its got to the point were I'm not enjoying it and my standards have dropped in order to finish this part!
I realised this a couple of weekends ago so last weekend I packed it away, I don't want to rush only to have to redo bits I am not happy with latter down the track! I'm going to have a 6-12 month break, in this time I have a couple of trivia bits to do on the ELR and I want to tart up the RG250 and I'm going on a motorcycle tour of Vietnam. Its not as if I don't have a bike to ride!
