This is all last weekends efforts. Sorting though the excess plumbing and maybe a bar build!
Coil and Speedo relocation was first order of the day. Built a bracket across cylinders and using pieces of the OEM coil and Speedometer brackets created my own piece. Tidy little operation if I do say so myself. Trimmed down the upper motor mount, but not loving the look.
Close up of the Speedo and coil trickery.
Rider perspective. Everything in view and no interference with my knee. Calling that a success. 
Gave it a quick rattle can. This along with a ton of other parts will hit the powder coater in a few weeks. 
Next is a bar build. Little bit of rise and a tracker style bar. Metric bikes typically run a 100mm C2C on their clamps to HD stuff is a no go making a custom bar a necessity. 
View from the front. May need a bit more narrowing.
Little Bates style headlight from Lowbrow replaces the larger stock unit. Will run high beam indicator and switch in the headlight to minimize wires traversing the backbone. 
This could work! Set of Biltwell exhaust tips. 
Cleaning up the harness and ran across two of these. Appear to be test ports, but no schematics available for the bike yet. Kind of spooked by this outcome. Worst case is they have to stay and I'll need to hide them, but was hoping to really simplify the harness.
That'd be it for now. Handing the bike back to Eric to wrap the tank and heading to Born Free this Saturday. It'll be back in my hands on Monday and the mad dash to finish by end of July begins!
