    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Rats nest of wires

I'm looking for suggestions on cleaning up this mess. It has a vetter headlight and no room for wires. Do I buy a headlamp bucket to tuck all of the wires into, or can you come up with a clever way to hide the mess?IMG_20170311_064025.jpgIMG_20170311_064025.jpg
 
Just pulled this off google images. Maybe it'll spark an idea for you.

Good luck.
 
Come to think of it, building some sort of junction box and making it look good will be much harder and more time consuming than just buying a GS headlight bucket. Unless of course making custom stuff is something you enjoy.
 
I might start by sorting & shortening the wires. It appears this bike had a fairing before I got it. The aluminium junction box looks good.
 
here's what I came up with...will probably paint the box black and have some Suzuki "S" badges which one will go on the box cover.

I shortened up a few, eliminated a couple more. Then bundled and wire tied. I would like to replace the whole headlight assembly soon, but for now this will have to do.IMG_20170311_181025.jpg
