Used the old loom from the voltage regulator along underneath the frame incorporating neutral light wire, oil light wire, starter lead with OEM circuit breaker, once in place the circuit breaker wires will need to be shortened as the routing is shorter than OEM I ran the wires already with heavy duty cover under the starter then up to the electric box. Would be nice to hide the lot but I'm not putting new wiring throughout as this is my first attempt and haven't foggiest as to where to drill holes in the frame for said wiring! so I have just run the Hi4 wiring through the frame as at least that is one less set of wires on view at least, and in some respect leaving the wiring easily accessible isn't such a bad idea for the newbie!
I've also come across some wiring loom covers that are all shades of colours so might just make a feature of them!
Lessons learnt:
I had to remove the front sprocket cover, front exhaust and pegs just to fit one wire connector (neutral light) half hours extra in the cold. Main reason was to eager to get her put together so I could sit and play and admire my work so far.... vanity pure vanity!!
I have also kept some of the main wires to and from the old fuse box and starter relay mainly so I have some idea of what goes where, to date I have about 12 different wiring diagrams plus a couple of online links. By switching between them and getting to understand how the setup works it is slowly making sense.
A couple of pictures for what it's worth
Hi 4 in place
Ignition wire for Hi4
Other wires are from rear light
OEM wires from regulator not yet fed under the starter, ignition and fuse box already in place
