Oddjob:
Welcome, I doubt you have any questions that haven't been asked and answered before. Vast wealth of knowledge on the site.
ComfySofa:
There'll be a shit load of MUnit based electrical ones coming!! :)

I'm currently making some new ones for my bikes, red for the positive lead to the starter solenoid and black for the earth lead and the starter motor cable.
You can always trap the earth point between the engine bracket and the engine, so behind the bracket not in front, that way it makes a really good contact with the engine casing.

I know Ken but I did not want to risk messing up the cable end by straightening it - when I bought the bike it was attached to the rectifier mounting bolt!
ComfySofa:
Ive got everything that came off the bike (well - i think so!) im guessing there is an original earthing strap or is it best to go with fresh wire?
Bryanj:
The original bracket when bought as a spare has no paint either side where the hole is to ensure good contact to engine and cable, as to new or old check for corossion and looseness at the ends if good use it
