You've made a good job of that,  well done.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

How easy was it for balancing the carbs with those pods, would love to do that to mine but think it would be a bugger to balance and ride

Thanks gents.
It's the first time I've ever done anything like this. It was a massive learning curve but I loved it and it kept me busy from January through to May.
I stripped it to bare frame. Chopped a bit off. Welded it back together and went from there.
I had help with the top end of the engine....and sent the carbs to a garage to be ultrasonically cleaned.
I rewired it using a motogadget m unit....which I love.
I'm happy with most bits but plan on changing some of the cheaper bits that I fitted to get it together quickly.
My second tank is with a painter currently so I'm looking forward to getting it back.

That's first class that is, and for your very first time is outstanding. Very neat job. How did the wiring and the m unit work out, does it get rid of all the gubbins such as relays and that. Did you do a simple skematic of wiring you could share?. As it looks great. And it all fits in that small area? Wow

Love the m unit. No relays...just inputs from switches and output to component
I used this schematic

Hats off to you pal, sorry for the questions but did you buy the electrics as a kit with the m unit?, I also love the indicators which come on as side lights. Great vid also, you should be proud of yourself. Having a lot of problems with my project at the moment with electrics, and that looks like a solution. Where did you purchase all that from inc switches.
