400/4 build. Paused due to other commitments. But starting up again
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I was quoting Rupert Paul whoever he is Roo.
I seem to be treading on everyone's toes today with my blather.🫣
ComfySofa:
Yep - thanks for the call earlier sir....some things have started to click....
Ted: in response to why ive gone down this route....
1. less wiring.
2. No fusebox.
3. I want to utilize LED lighting (this fits the Munits m.o. perfectly)
4. The amount of times ive come across old bikes on the side of the road dead due to electrics....i wanted, not, to be that person....just to add ive got a digital ignition to add at a later date..
5. The built in alarm.
Its my old mans bike...he passed away 10 years ago now...it doesnt really need them but itll be getting a set of Nitron rear shocks...why, i just want them...its kind of a resto mod...the munit is kinda part of that.....i full expect to hopefully get it working and then at a later date probably refine it as its the first time ive done it....

Rupert Paul used to be a journo on performance bikes 25 odd years ago....i think he now runs his own company called "Rupe's Re-Wires"
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
If Rupert Paul makes wiring looms he probably/might/will have a built in bias against the M system.
I will be interested to see some photos of the wiring system as it progresses using the Motogadget Box system - presumably there will be an interface at the handlebar an M button?.
The 500 seems to have little built in protection with just one fuse so on reflection it looks an interesting option if you have the wiring ability.
My wiring skills might lead to a spaghetti junction look without being able to get a handle on how it looks in practice.
