XL500S exhaust WRAP


Exhaust wrap for function (stop potential burns) and its a cafe racer thang....Not the neatest job ever -  I will do it again when the engine comes out for strip and powder coat.

Some electrical gremlins SORTED

Pulled the headlight housing off so I could have a good gander at the wiring, as the instrument lights in the gauge cluster are not working.


The main positive wire that completes this circuit was not connected - so now it works. The high beam light was also not connected - so now it is! So once I fire up the engine again hopefully all the lights will work! Tail light now works also - night test rides are now go!Will have to wait till after work to do that!

Sorry David - I just think it looks significantly better with a high mount front mudguard........
