Decided to play with fuse box today and make a blade fuse replacement.
Pic of finished blade fitted to bike and working all ok
Cheap enough to buy at 6.00 plus a couple of quid for spades
all wires soldered on blade fittings,i think with a bit of messing i could make the blade fusebox fit inside the old fusebox housing.
thats going to be version 2 i think

Very worthwhile mod to do. Have fitted spade fuse box on 750 need to do the 550 next. Countless main fuses blown due to crap springy contact thingys!

A full engine with oil leak at bottom but runs fine
Another engine stripped
So today engine with oil.leak out of frame and head off
Untested engine stripped and head and barrels off
Rings new barrels all fine refitted to bottom.end

Lower front engine mounting bolt by any chance? Usually when case guards removed and long bolt put back
