John - I just ordered that workshop manual, so when it arrives if you need any info, just give me a call. Jim
Ok good news jim thanks buddy I have almost finished with the wiring now, spent another 3 hours soldering tonight.. I'm expecting issues when I first power up.. If it's all works of the cuff I will be very suprised!
OK quick couple of pics of todays efforts, 98 ignition connected, left hand 08 switch gear soldered in, rad fan connectors from the 98 soldered on.
Did you get the hazzards working? Rr4/5 never had them afaik and later models used a different flasher unit for that reason.
Oh joy Arthur doesn't sound like there going to work then is the flasher relay in with the other relays in the second black box I've mounted to the frame as I've not been able to locate it? I saw the hazard wiring was just looped together in the switch gear to run both sets of indicators when pressed, didn't think of the relay..
Thanks Martin, couldn't see it on my headlight loom.. Is it part of that subloom? Will have a look at the wiring diagram when I'm up, still in bed at the mo haha lazy git
Gear lever shaft arrived today from Skippy, thanks very much buddy looks perfect will try it for fit later Also rememberd I have a 2012 flasher relay with the 2012 loom I hacked the connector off so will see if I can use this relay on the RR4 loom.. long shot but worth a try Any harm powering up the electrics without the ECU connected Arthur? Not going to try and start it of course
that's fast ;-) more than welcome, if too long ground it down, I took 1cm off mine without a problem... where's the next video?
Thanks skippy, think I need to take 10mm extra so that's perfect.. New video is now uploading with some exciting updates I'm back in bed again now Martin hehe
LC at some point did it have a single sided swing arm and white wheels? Was searching something on google and found a pic of it which was really random
Yes sure did Martin, that was the first incarnation EP8 is now also online 8. Engine Swap Project, Fitting a CBR1000RR motor to a 98 CBR900RR Fireblade (PART 8) HD - YouTube
Looks good, thanks for the thank you but your the one doing all the hard work, I've made little to nothing of a contabution to your project, however if you ever need a hand just ask I'm not far from you, or if you are up my way drop in and say hello I'll make you a cup of tea.
Thanks Arthur, I may take you up on your offer of help.. The big one will be when I attempt to start it! Will defo pop in for a cuppa though and see your fleet in the spring
OK so I have the fairings mounted now and they fit, well can be made to fit I dont know what to do though.. Im getting tempted with 2012 race fairings but not sure what I want.. I have done a photoshop comparison what do you guys think? If I went 2012 would be race fairings and daytime MOT I would think..
I would keep the farings as they are, it will keep the costs down for now and keeps the mystery of what it is, can always do the fairings at a later date but I personally like the chunky front
