[QUOTE="Rednaxs60, post: 220247, member: 4617"] Been a very good day on the restoration/rebuild work. Have been prepping some wire runs for the new outer wire cover. Have the wires for the lights in the key switch cover done:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Ignition Switch Cover and Lights.jpg"]21153._xfImport[/ATTACH]Will be using the black with red wire cover in places that are not out in the open, don't want to waste it. The lights shine through the slits in the key switch cover - shine on the dash. Took several other polished aluminum parts - valve, timing belt and IAC covers, and injector housings - cleaned with Dawn dish detergent then sprayed with a liberal coating of the CERAKOTE clear that I have. Thought I had stopped putting parts/pieces in the exercise room:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Engine Aluminum Coated 1.jpg"]21154._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="Engine Aluminum Coated 2.jpg"]21155._xfImport[/ATTACH] Also decided that I need to upgrade the wiring I have installed in the last 5 years, and to refresh the memory on what has been done. Have most of the wiring uncovered, and there is quite the lot to sort out:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Electrical Wiring 1.jpg"]21156._xfImport[/ATTACH]Lots of splices and different coloured wires making up a single run. Thinking I'll put a push on and get this done this week. Will have a go at numbering everything again. Have to work on the new switch panel I intend to install, something similar to what I installed on my V-Strom - bent some ABS sheet to suit:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Accessory Panel 3.jpg"]21157._xfImport[/ATTACH]This pic shows the jig I made up to bend the ABS sheet:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Gauge Panel 2.jpg"]21158._xfImport[/ATTACH]Worked out well, didn't have to, put holes in any of the plastics.
