That does look trick indeed but not in my plans at the moment mate...will keep the link for later use!

So now I am waiting for my custom loom to be made and I think I will lose some weight there. I hope the new loom to be around 2kg (original was 5kg).

Maybe I will have something later this month Tongue

Great work, dare I ask what the aim of the rebuild is, are you going to race it or something, or show it,

Hello all, 

It seems that Photobucket went mad and wants a small fortune to allow third party hosting...any suggestions for another host for pictures?

I need to fix this for future use...

I think you can still put links up but not the 3rd party picture hosting

So the link would take you back to photobucket to view rather than look at the photo direct on the forum

This Photobucket thing is a pita,the internet is littered with broken links disrupting reading Angry

I hope it backfires on them and they end up losing out long term

Just noted that in the usa a supplier on ebay is selling titanium front axles which fit both generations of the rsv and rsv4.

So here it is...after all the waiting the new loom is finally ready and the end result is more than satisfying. The new loom alone weight just over a kilo!!



The loom including the stock rectifier weights 1424gr...I think I can find a mosfet rectifier that weights less



And this is the final number inluding the Ignijet ECU with all its cables....1986gr
