Looks great, I have been wanting to do something similar myself.  Where did you source the propper connectors from?

Just out of curiosity, how do you go about even figuring out where to start and how to do this?!  It seems so impossible.. what sort of background do you need to understand this stuff.. i doubt it's just common sense, or is it??

WARNING !   If you dont know how to use a multimeter .... forget this project playing whit electrical stuff can be letal

1-having experience in soldering electronics is critical
2-A good knowledge about apms,volts, ohms, grouds etc... is necessairy
3-understanding AWG gages and how they interact whit the connectors and how to crimp properly..... very importat
3.2 - Be preprapare to do the imposible and alot of patience! :D
4-  + have been playing in the loom for a couple of years ;D

I need to buy an extra loom to play around with... good luck ducati girl

Hmm, I picked up an extra for my 900 a while back... hmmm. Ditching the big fuse box and some of the other obnoxious wiring would be nice.

Keep up with the details ducatigirl100! Very neat

Update  [popcorn]

1-tail section
2- sensors ( oil, neutral, rear brake)
3- ingnition section ( i've used the old conectores form the coil and ignition module )
4- front section ( horn, signal, headligth )
5-motorscope tiny [drool]

A few principle of desing

1- dont run ground in the loom because it make it bigger....  
2-Ground  at the "base's"   at front, midle and rear sections
3- using pods ... i'll use part of the aibox to put electronics in it making it very clean

the motogaget motorscope tiny is .... well... tiny  :o

0.5 mm gauge ( I think... ) !!!! :o almost impossible to crimp  properly  so some soldering is needed to make a good connection...

Wow, impressive work!

By any chance, do you have a less-attractive, older sister?   ;D
