I started to install the complete new wire harness. In the middle I stopped and decided to remove it. I am redoing this bike with some custom work, so I decided to do custom electrical system as well. I found this piece and was very impressed with what it could do.

Just one more set of pictures for now, During the engine rebuild, Larry installed a complete set of Stainless Steel Allen Head Bolts for the entire engine. Paying attention to detail, I thought I would follow. I bought a complete Stainless Steel Allen Head engine mounting hardware set.

It seems the picture of the hardware set isn't the one I used, I should have put on my glasses before I hit submit, anyway you get what I was trying to do. Thanks all for following. I am currently making brackets to mount the rear sets. will be back as soon as I have more. look up the M-unit blue , read about it, watch some videos about it. it is a great piece.

Looking good.
I have been intrigued by the M unit and other Motogadget stuff. It looks like a good choice for custom electrics, or full replacement system, and it comes without the stigma of a cheap price.

I am currently trying to build brackets to mount 2003 GSXR 1000 rear sets onto my frame, has anybody else done this? if so can I have some pics to see the spacing. Especially the right (brake) side of the bike. The main engine bolt seems to interfere with the brake master rod. I can make spacers as well but I would like to see if anybody else had the same problem, and how they solved it before I get crazy. Thank you for all the help.

I have had some time to try to design a bracket. I made a bracket to mount the rear sets, as I'm looking at the frame and ready to mount something hit me. After I mount the header will the brackets fit? So I mounted the header, and the bracket does not work, so back to the drawing board.

This isn't the header I want to use but to see if the bracket will work it was what I had.

This is the header I want to use. It will have to wait due to the price.

So while I try to figure out how to mount the rear sets, I am going forward with other parts of the project. I finally found a rear rim, its an 18" X 6.5 so now I mounted a 200. The old tire was a 160 with a couple of plugs in it.
