I know this is going to be a good turn out because your minis always turn out as absolute head turners. Can't wait to see the finished product.

quick question but how does the gear indicator work. i presume it takea feed off the gearbox.

or is it some fiddly technical volototy derived thing?

thanks

It works off of a feed from the engine. Comes as a kit that just plugs straight into the bike loom.

Have done a lot this week. Twin box exhaust system with cat built and home made air box built to allow a much smaller hump in the bulkhead and to clear the harnesses. Drove it out of the garage to see what it sounded like and it's very quiet compared to my pickup. The wife could hardly hear it from in the house .
