Hehe. Some people are so demanding lol.. a just isn't enough

Neutral light can come on if the battery doesn't have the power to turn the starter motor. Takes a fair bit of power to turn it.

will give it a jump tomorrow as well
dont know what ya mean josh

Haha.. sometimes you just need to get your hands dirty to get the most pleasing results Should never go for a rushed job, after all there's much more pleasure in doing a job well (just like rubbing a downpipe with your hands going up and down. )

You got a Haynes Manual (no that's not dirty! )? Check the wires on the ignition circuit. Start with the orange-white at the ICU end and gradually move your hands lower down.. THE CIRCUIT OF COURSE!

Clutch switch again? Is it the nekkid one? Some of those aftermarket levers don't actuate the clutch switch properly. Bypass it as matter of course. Also clutch switch terminal was a bit stoke-on-trent IIRC.

Tacho wire comes straight from front coil, you can use either coil feed but it is just that. There is one spark per revolution (clocks will probably need telling that somehow, some systems use one spark per 2 revolutions.)

Temp sender unit, take a radiator hose off, see if that dooberry fits in snugly. Otherwise I could bring a spare thermostat housing for you and see if the temperature sender will fit same thread as stock.

Speedo, RTFM. See what vapor tells you to do with their magnet/sensor.

Temp dooda fits fine in the rad hose. I mounted my speedo on the swingarm with a magnet on the brake disc. I used the vapor tacho thing, and ran it off the rear coil (read somewhere to do that, can't remember where).

right she lives just a quick tick over cos need to refill the coolant but she lives (yc right as usual smug git ) now just the electrics to sort now
so heres the thing what can i chop off and can i conect the power from the loom to the vapor also the rpm, the temp i will use the bit that came with it. can i chop out these wires

I didn't get rid of any wires, just pulled them back, wrapped them up and kept them under the tank just in case.

*Obligatory reply*

Shoulda got an Acewell...

right heres where im at
bikes running, new indies fitted and working, all electrical gremlins sorted ( f ing cut wire mid loom f***** **** **** ), cluch needs just tighting, wires hid, new forks, on new wheel on, new levers on, headlight fixed and working, temp gauge installed,
things still to be done
speedo set up, rpm set up, new headlight caseing put on ( when i can find one), new tank put on when i pick it up (but one on it works fine), new exhaust put on when it painted (old on on at the min), pump up front tyre or replace if it is a puncture.
am well happy 9hrs of graft and ive got a working bike
