Alright Tremendous!

Assuming all the connectors on your existing loom are ok, and there isn't an alarm patched into the loom anywhere, it should be relatively straight forward mate!

Remove all the bodywork from the bike, including the tank (remember to close the stop-rock underneath before disconnecting all the fuel lines). Then 'lay' the new loom next to the old one on the bike, start at one end and connect the new loom as you disconnect the old one. Make sure you run the new loom in exactly the same path as the old one, and take care when unclipping the connectors from the loom or the loom ties which hold it to the frame in various places - they break easily.

Easy, in theory! Good luck mate!
Perseverance takes too long....

Hi tremendous

Welcome to the forum.

Pretty much covered above - they're fairly simple to do, must be, I managed it :lol:

Graeme.
