A skunk in the works

Was planning to finish up the ignition wiring when I noticed this.



Wires to the instrument cluster are fried to.What the heck else can go wrongGetting to the end of my rope here.

Child's play Greg.

Note the location of the wires in the hard shell connector, remove them from the shell and slide off the protective sleeve. Repair the individual wires by staggering where you splice in new wires so the repair doesn't look too bulky. Slide the covering back over the wires by tying a string to the wire bundle and feeding it through the sleeve. Reinstall the terminals in their respective locations and your done.

You are right Dale,it's not really that bad.I've had a cold all week with no end in sight and everything just looks worse than it is right now.

[SVSooke]

After freaking out about this the fix was easy.Just cut the badly burned buts out and used the excess wire to rejoin them.It was burned when the main ground burned up not something in these wires themselves which is what I was thinking.

Got the paint recleared with the 2K in a can. Defiantly prefer the to using a gun,just can't seem to get the hang of that

With all the work to do on the wife's truck and getting the http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?218554-Project-82-GPz750&highlight= ] torn down and upkeep on http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...ad&highlight=I haven't had much time for the 1000.But in the last few weeks I have been tinkering away at it and I got last few electric things sorted.So today I though on the nearly dean battery with just enough power to make sure things worked without melting down the wiring.Thought that battery had really kicked the bucket but it turns out there wasn't a main fuse.That put in the first thing I hear is a buzzing noise from the turn signal relay,I'll figure that out later.Checked out the new horn wiring and that was not working eitherOK that's on the list to.Starter as expected didn't do much but it did try and didn't burn up my "new" harness eitherSo in went the new battery from the 750.Now that turned the engine over strong!Checked the spark and it's there.Head and taillights work.Think the problems with the horn and signals have something to do with the lower left side control pod.

Got the horn working but the signals are still buzzing http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...-ignition-s-on .

Got the it mocked up today with the polishing done.Going to try a start up soon.

Got this Emgo Viper I want to use.Will have to lose the lower triple cover and get a different wider bar if I want to use it though.Will fix the PO mods and paint it to match if I use it.



Got the badges on and the seat finished to

Picking up the new battery todayLooked into the petcock,it seems it was in better shape than I thought.Threw it in the ultrasonic to clean it out.Did it need it!Really happy I can use the original petcock.Ordered a new "O" ring for it from the local dealer and was shocked,it was only $8Hoping to try a start up this weekend.

[SVSooke]

So I got the original petcock all cleaned up and I noticed the inlet pipe was a bit loose.No big deal so I took it off the keep it safe.Now I can't find the d*****d thing.Me and the wife have been looking,HARD!It should be on the table that I was putting it together on but it's nowhere to be seen.Grrrrrrrr..... http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...-1000-fuel-tap
