Excellent work there buddy, you sure are tidy. Well documented, great work on the paint, wondered where you were going with the tank lettering then it all came together. Interesting looking coating on the engine and forks.

Great build and well documented build history - well done

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 :D
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

I can't remember the colours right now, but there are 2 spare wires up front that are used for daytime running lights in USA.
I suspect the blue ring connector is for regulator or rectifier?
Bryanj:
And dont forget to remove the paint/powdercoat where it bolts on, same at main earth wire
