1976 CB550F1 (what have I let myself in for) Project

Making a bit of headway. Sorry I've been rubbish at taking photos of progress.
This is what the bike currently looks like.

I've been working on getting the foot controls sorted.
I've mocked up the rear-set on the brake side and shortened the brake rod. Unfortunately the rear brake arm and cam splines are very worn and don't really fit together anymore so I'm on the lookout for some replacements!

Other work I've done is weld the battery table, battery strap hooks and solenoid mounts.
I'm converting to twin disk and have had a speedo bushing and spacer machined as per the black square motorcycles design which fits perfectly.
After I've got the foot controls sorted I'll focus on mocking up the wiring and the front brakes.
Some issues I need to overcome is the kickstarter hitting the brake and moving the tank petcock bung forward as it currently fouls the carbs,

Can anyone see an issue with this wiring diagram? I amended the Revival cycles one.

Clutch switch?
Lobo:
...the coils are earthed?
Bryanj:
Nope, primaries via points, secondaries not but the steel mounting is bolted to the frame and an earth wire connects there as well
