I dig those connectors, but I don't dig the $165 price tag haha.

I understand where you are coming from. My philosophy is that I am building the wiring harness once and it's for me, I'm not selling the bike later. I would not go this route for a bike I may get rid of. It may be slightly over engineered when it's done.

Been waiting on a frame brace kit from Wireman but I gave him the wrong address :S , have not been able to get him to respond since. Wireman if you are out there, sorry for the hassle would still love to have the kit!

After I get the frame braced up the project will start to gain a lot of momentum.

Going to have the the carbs Maxi-bored and use his Campbell X-pipe (I'm a little nervous about the X-Pipe as I have not been able to find a lot of info about it). Did get him to give me a discount for purchasing both.

The frame will be powder coated Gunmetal Grey. Paint will be the new Kawasaki, "Golden Blazed Green" with gunmetal grey offset stripes; one fat one skinny(tank, wheel spokes, front and rear fenders). Engine will be black with some polished aluminum parts.

There are a few other one off goodies that I'm still working out the details on.

I will definitely document the process. Hoping to not make myself look like a fool, I have never done a wiring harness before but that has not stopped me from doing anything else on my bike thus far.

Are you making a factory style harness, or something for bare essentials?

Not really bare essentials but custom to what I need with as close to factory coding as possible.

Got my new Mosfet Regulator/Rectifier today. Once I get it mounted I can start my wiring harness rebuild!

Leon that is a kit from www.roadstercycle.com it came with everything in the pic. I opted for the Maxi-fuse but you can get it with a auto reset breaker too. I bought because of all the LED lights I'm running and I want to run a lithium battery.
