Cheers Shane.

The wiring is pretty much sorted, I just need to tidy up the routing above the rear mudguard once the regulator has been mounted.
Looking forward to getting the bodywork back on at some point!

I've always tried to keep my cable routing and cable ties as per original but on my last build Martin cook (chiselspeed) advised me to use none on the clutch cable. When I look at my triumph 1050, it has none at all in the clutch cable, so it just finds it's own way. And when I think about it, all my big bikes have been like that.
I did this on my last build and it's a revelation. So much lighter than others I've done with same 5 plate and bgm spring set up.
I did think the cable might have hung out hither and thither looking a mess, but it doesn't.

Good call, when you think abaout it its only the gear cables and throttl that need securing on the stem to stop them falling down when changing cable inners.
