very professional looking.

I can't see the NOS switch

Neat job, rocket.

+1 Looks really good that mate.

Got some parts back for the rs250

I have had the front sub-frame modded so it can hold the ecu, Battery, regulator and fuse box now i can start wiring the bike.



A bit of a test fit with the dash.

Wiring is just about done
Its took some work and made some changes to how i wired it up and what i used. Its so compact at the front of the bike with every thing being on top of each other

There's not much room there.

Is the rectifier normally there or did you make a special bracket?

it was mounted at the rear of the bike moded the front fairing stay to mount every thing to the front

Nice job!

Very professional looking mate, - dare I say possibly better than the Italians original workmanship.
Will the headlamps still fit (along with the HID conversions) ??

No headlight not running one i could maybe get a small endurance type light in there i think but i dont want to run one anyway.but running a brake/tail light.

Not wrong about Italian wiring. It seems very basic on the rs, I have had to use some of the original connectors and had to rewire them as the wires are badly corroded. I thought this was just the loom i had chosen but i have another loom that was in a similar state.

Looking good Rocket!

Not sure why but the image is not showing for me but I know it will be to the usual high Rocket standards.

What did insurance say about no headlight mate ? Years ago I enquired about not having one on the SP and they were not prepared to cover me without one.

Not really looked its not going on the road much. Im hoping i can get it on a classic policy if there anything like the card ones they are much more relaxed.

No pics as nothing to Show but 2 days setting up the power valves want them SPOT on as they make a big difference to low end power and if they are strained can break and fall into the engine.

Been working on the bike here and there. It now runs after a couple of teething problems.
It sounds nice and I'm pleased that its pretty much all in order .I have booked a setup/dyno day for April 21st first date i could get with the guy Hope fully will get to give it shake down before.

I picked up some new front and side fairings for it and have been fitting them over the last few days I'm pleased with how they have come up.

oh boy that looks bloody sexy!
