I would use part no 210 210C and 210P ... put small self-tapper into side of subframe to hold it.

Sound, ok, just to double check:

• Get RR
• Get wires rated to 50amp min
• Get fuse holder and fuse (20 map + 30 just encase)
• Get circle clips to fit live and neutral to the battery (rated correctly and the right size for the battery bolts)
• Get spade end connectors (rated correctly)

The job:

• Chop the plugs of the lume, add spades to the yellow ones (soldered), tape up the red and black (or just leave the plug on them and tape that up)
• make up yellow connect wires with spades (soldered)
• make up live and neutral wires with fuse close (about an inch or two) from the battery, spades on one end, rings on the other.
• plug it all together
• start and prey (test)

Does that about sum it up or have I missed something?

For the wire use the same wire as the inline fuse thing from maplin (12AWG), no need to get 50 amp wire if your using that.

Or you can get a fancy waterproof connector for your 3 yellows.

you know the pair of plugs with 4" of wire between them next to reg-rec? I cleaned one of those up so new reg rec would plug straight in to alternator.

It is up to you, many ways to skin a cat. So long as your connectors aren't green and fuzzy

nah - I'm drawling the line at going to the battery that'll do me

ok, here is the beast it's a FH014AA from an 09 fireblade apparently. The first pic shows the size against the stock one and the second the pins.

So my main question is which pin is the live one? It's not marked with a hardy + sign, do you know the way to test to find out which on is which on the pair on the right?

Connect it up, start bike, use your voltmeter on it. If you get a +ve reading then you have your live probe to live terminal, if it is -ve then it is backwards.
