Ah the joys of wiring up a bike...... By the way i have installed a (modified) Harley Davidson part. Not sure if i will keep it though. Can you guess which part?

Fatty now with added fat!10 months and 5000 km since the last update.... not much has changed during the year, basically because the bike was pretty much as I wanted it. Only the Slingy clocks didn't look good so a welding mate has glued this together:

The clocks look good, as the bike is a proper sleeper.

connected the clocks, now fuel level and gear position are also showing, oil temp will be done another time (this year the modifications have cost SFA and I want to keep it like this). Neutral: 1st gear: And it looks nice and fat. Lifted the headlight a bit, this makes the clocks look not so big.

Does the speedometer work correct with the 17" front wheel? I guess EF clocks only show the correct speed with the 16" front wheel, or am I wrong?

some time ago I calculated the diameters of the original EFE tyre and the Slingy tyre, the difference was something like 2mm. Nothing to worry about. The only thing I haven't tried is the Slingy speedo drive (on the wheel spindle). If the reduction is the same as the EFE one then everything is cool.

I did not expect, that the difference is that less. Would be perfect if it will work! Nice build! Thumbs up.

It looks well with them pipes, I always like a twin set of cans (gigerty) gives it a balanced look. Well done fella. As for the wiring, I always end up with them jobs too, don't know how, wish folk would f**k off.
