    Looking at those photos.... now would be a good time to trash the "Pair Valves" if you intend to Power Command her, getting the fueling spot on will be a mare with the valves still there. Blanking plates make it tidy but blanking the hoses will have the same effect.

    Thanks Gilesy very kind of you buddy.

    Haggler you have answered a quesiton of mine, noticed these tubes and the valve and was planning on dumping it. Gilesy that link those go inside the covers on the rocker I presume?

    Lambchops.. I believe they replace the "covers" on the top of the rocker.. Then you get rid of all that pipe work and pair valve etc..

    You can also just buy rubber blank off tubes with the original clips.
    Its what I did on my SP1, and junked the rest.

    Only cost a couple of £

    Gotcha Gilesy, keeps it neat and the space it frees could be useful :) may have to invest, thanks for the link to the blanking grommets also shiny they will come in handy I'm sure.

    Well did a bit more yesterday now the ban has been lifted :)

    Spent about 6 hours looking at the wiring and deciding where everything is going to be located. The inner tank is such a tight fit its making it very tricky to keep all loom out of the way. Decided to relocate the rec as the inner frame support will be too hot so its being moved to the subframe. Extended the wires

    Later today will be out there again finishing off the location of stuff in the subframe, its mightly tight in there also thank goodnesss I have a smaller lipo battery which is helping :)

    well another couple of hours spent out there today, now have the location of the subframe and its gubbins fully sorted. The battery is retained by two curved brackets which dont show up very well in the photos. Im going to add some velcro to the underside just to stop any movement which could wear it.

    Also from the rear with a dummy plate fitted,

    I've been thinking about the sp-vcc again on the 2012 dash, I've studied the wiring diagrams some more and this wire goes from the dash to the speed sensor, that's it no other joins. So I think this is the power feed to the speed sensor so the dash is powering the sensor be that 5v or whatever.. The other connectors on the sensor are the sp signal which goes via the ecu and to the clocks and an earth. Would you agree it looks like the clocks power the sensor on the 2012 bike?

    So as the rr4 sensor is powered from the 12v light circuit perhaps I can run without this wire... I've ordered an ecu so I think I'm going to try it without this sp-vcc connected first, If it doesn't work can stick a meter on the wire and see if the clocks are outputting any voltage on the wire.. Sound like a plan? Backup plan is to try with a RR8 + speed sensor perhaps.. Providing I havent blown up a £200 set of clocks by then!!

    Can I ask a favor from those with 2012 manuals?

    I have the RR4 workshop manual and have taken a photo of the VSS sensor testing procedure and it confirms the voltage which should be output to the clocks and ECU is between 0 & 5V, could someone take a photo of the same page from the 2012 manual so I can compare? Pretty please :)
