Yep. The bug is back. Spent the day at the Taupo race track yesterday on the GSXR1000K3 which had previously been sitting in friends garage for the last year or so in various states of dis-assembly and re-assembly.
Now I'm sitting here at home, the GSXR is outside in my driveway. And I have an overwhelming urge to get on it and take it for a good rip around the neighborhood (59kmh and no more of course).
One small problem is that it doesn't have the front electrical loom for the dash and headlights and therefore is not currently registered for riding on the open road. Apart from the indicators not being hooked up and having no horn it's otherwise completely sweet.
Please help me find an electrical loom for my bike so that I can attain the cure for 'The Bug'.

you then go to dicksmith and buy some connectors and use them in replacement to the plugs, or find some plugs to match.

I was gonna say that because that's what i'd do, but if you wanted it to be all nice and removeable i thought connectors of somesort would be the way to go.

only problem is that a need a specific plug for the back of the digital speedo. By the time i've sorced all the bits and pieces to make one im sure it would have been cheaper and easier to just buy one.

Solder into the plug that is all inaccessible behind the speedo and put a connector somewhere nicer?
