I guess i found a walkaround for missing light blue connector: I'll use the unused line from the bunch to the headlight(light blue/white one), and will make a jumper connection to the blue installation in the headlight. Tried it and it seems that it works for now.

I've ordered new bullet connectors so I can make a new cables , so 'ill have to wait for that one to arrive.

In the meantime, I've put the headers on:









And recreated new main leads, the old owner was too lazy to replace the connector once it broke off







That's it for now, I have to put the carbs together and maybe give it a go?

Thank you all, I am glad you like it.

There is no coat on the engine, it's just raw material, soda blasted. The forks though are RAL9006(if I remember correctly), but I am not satisfied with the color itself. I went for oem looks, but now I am not so sure... Ah well, i need to leave something for the next winter

Drain pipe and breather pipe are not yet connected and that will be done once the carbs are in place. Thank you for the heads up.

I started with the electrics tonight:



It seems that I have evertything sorted out in the headlight area, but still, I have couple of wtfs and I am not sure what to do next.

The headlight have two wires that seem not to be in use. Orange/white and Light blue/white. Am I right? Seems that the wiring diagram confirms that:



On the connectors by the steering stem, it seems that one wire is missing -  the Light blue one. (RH blinker one)



Here it is connected, and the cable from the switch does not have it's pair. Am I missing something here? Is there a workaround? FWIW, the main installation is new one from 4into1 and the switch is new one from Honda.



Additional question: Where does this one go? This is near the airbox.



Thanks for any input, any advice would be much appriciated.

Best regards, Kristijan

Hi to all,

I am in the middle of the restoration process, so I have decided to join the forum in the search of some answers.

Here's the process so far... I bought the bike in 2016 as a cafe racer build, but somewhere down the stripdown process I decided to restore it. Not that have gave up on the cafe racer idea.

Here are a few pictures, hope you like them:

The day I bought it:



The assembly begins:



The painting process:
















First of several gloss finish





Final polish:



New rear shocks:



Front shocks restored with all available new parts:









New labels :





Some parts refurbished









Footpegs restored:









Expanded the carriers for new coils (DynaCoil 5ohm)



Refurbished the airbox bleeder housing(don't know the exact name, sorry









Wheels laced











Wheels finished:



On wheels now:



Instruments and headlight rebuild:



























Headlight rebuild:









New front brake



New rear brake



New blinkers:



New controls:



Engine rebuilt. Not done by me obviously, not on that level of expertise for now



painted cylinder studs

























And that's about it for now...

This is what it looks like for now:



Now onto the electric mess, trying to wire up everything and I do have a couple of questions but, at the moment, the wiring diagram answers the majority of them   

Sorry for the long post 

Best regards,
Kristijan
