I'll also install the push botton from motogadget ;

Simple, great looking , and the grounds are directly in the push botton "compartement"
So no grouds are rooted trough the loom for the signals controls ..     hi-beam
left turn,  horn on one side and start / righ  turn on the other.


The M-button green wire is the only one going through the loom

What took the longest was the design of it  because I add to do a lot of reaserch [coffee]

Doing the crimping, soldering, whiring is about 10 hours but the desing is about 40 hours I guess.... :)

I like the m-switches...I don't know if i can like them for $138 but they are really purty. Most of the ducati ones are really bulky and stick out on the handlebars. Keep up with Pictures!

I take it that includes the battery.  ;)

Or is the instrument cluster that heavy?  ???
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

If I read correctly, she's rewired the entire bike. Wiring is heavy and she's removed a ton of it...

But yeah, I imagine she went with a LiFePo battery? That's what I did when mne needed to be replaced and saved me almost 7lbs...

Yes it includes the battery. I didin't bougth it yet.  I've just add the weigth to what I'd alredy done.

I have a few options for the battery but it will be betwen 1.2 to 1.6 ponds

The intument cluster whit the sterring lock weigth about 8 ponds

Also....   I'll use coilpacks intead of the old 50' style coils the bike came whit .....  
so I'm saving weigth because there will be no spark plug wires

Get the bigger battery: LiFePO batteries are rated as Pb equivalent, not actual Ah.

We made this plate and coated it.

Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

Did you find a source for coil on plug coil packs for the Air cooled motor?  The only thing I can find are Accekk coils for twin cam Harleys, and they lok a little too bulkey to fit the monster cyl head.
