With some LED's they need connecting with the right polarity - hope I'm not insulting your intelligence.
Some LED's are not Polarity sensitive but probably  most are.

I tested mine with a slave battery - some come with good instructions.

Good bit of Metalwork there Dom - always a nice feeling to make something yourself.

Thanks Ted!  Do you know if I'm barking up the right tree with my led's as I think you've done similar?  Currently the fronts won't light up at all.

Hi Bryan and thanks,
Do you mean push down from inside where the slide goes in? Unfortunately the system will not allow me to post any pictures at the minute.

Thanks

Thank you, as per previous advice I’ve seen here I will put a piece of white paper close to the front tappets and check for splashes.

I presume the amount of oil will be sufficient that there would be no doubt that it’s there?

Bit of an update, made up a gauge and ignition brackets out of 2mm steel bent in a vice with lots of mapp gas, lots of hacksawing and even more filing.  Really happy with the results!

Norton were there showing three bikes, the new Commando (special deal of that, a £2k off deal, only now £13K!!). The V4CR was dessed in the 125th anniversary colour scheme, yours for £49K. They also had a V4 in the colours of the Steve Hislop White Charger that won the IOM in 1992 and not for sale.
