    Main beam doing this...

    Just a quick update and to conclude this, in case anyone else suffers a similar problem. The issue turned out to be a bent connector in the wiring block. I took it to a mechanic who found it straight away and pointed out I'd been lucky not to cause any serious problems. He also tidied up my...

    Main beam doing this...

    I don't unfortunately - but it's looking an ever-increasing possibility it may be the speedo. However, I have just looked at the wiring again on the tutorial and noticed I've plugged in the right hand light rather than the left. From what I've read I should then take the black wire from what...

    Main beam doing this...

    Cheers again. I don't seem to have a spare ground wire - does it need cutting from the loom? I'm also on an S1 bike so not sure if that's different. My friend's a bit worried I've caused a spike with my previous faulty loom and basically written-off the speedo.

    Main beam doing this...

    Thanks for the help. I haven't done anything with a ground wire at the moment, I've just plugged in a new harness and getting this result. Should I have a ground connected to the bike in there somewhere? I will double check the wiring again to make sure. I haven't cut the harness at all as I...

    Main beam doing this...

    Has anyone got any idea why this is happening? It's following a naked conversion, when I hit the main beam switch the dials go nuts. https://youtu.be/iStCvB3Z3qw At the moment I'm using the stock loom from a fz6s. The right headlight is plugged but I don't have the sidelight plugged in yet -...

    Worth changing harness?

    Cheers guys. I've got it all together and cabled. It's now doing something realy strange - the oil light flashes constantly and when I go to turn on hig beam the speedo goes mental - lighting everything up. Is this normal before the high beam mod? Or is there something else wrong?

    Cheers - just seen your finished bike and looks so nice. A lot cleaner than mine! I'm going to take it all apart again next week to refit the harness and see if I can cram an uncut cable in there. Fingers crossed!

    Worth changing harness?

    I've enquired about a naked harness from fowlersparts (really good UK based company to get your bits from - their website is amazing). Waiting to hear back from them. I've basically butchered my standard harness so bought another one off ebay and collected it today. It's really not an easy mod...

    Worth changing harness?

    Managed to sort the wiring issue out but not having problems with the OEM bracket catching the frame bolts at the top. The whole thing's been a nightmare to be honest. Half thinking of just packing it in, buying a new harness and putting it back to 'normal'. Have had problems each step of the...

    Worth changing harness?

    I've got myself in a right mess with the wiring. Trying to get an auto electrician to look at it. Basically when I press the indicator, the hazard lights come on. When I press the hazard lights, nothing happens. Cannot get my head round it at all - going mad looking at diagrams.

    Naked Conversion Wiring

    Here's a pic of the wiring as it stands. Hopefully you can see I've done a 2 into 1 on the brown wire, which is how I thought it came off the bike. If I don't do this, I'd be left with a spare brown wire.

    Naked Conversion Wiring

    Hoping someone can help. I'm having a problem with the naked conversion wiring. The issue is that the hazard lights (synchronised strobing turn signals) don't work on the front when the hazard warning button is pressed. They do, however, come on when either turn signal is used. Neither of the...

    Worth changing harness?

    Started mine today! Got everything sorted except the wiring. I've rerouted the throttle cables and harness through the right hand side of the bike which made a lot of space. Fingers crossed will be all finished tomorrow and back on the road! It's a fiddly job but straight forward.

    Thanks for posting that - helps a lot. Is this the entire wiring harness from the bike, or does this just clip off the front end?

    Worth changing harness?

    That makes it look a lot simpler! Is that the full wiring from the entire bike or just the bit removed from the front end?

    Worth changing harness?

    Thanks again for the help everyone. Crimping seems the way to go! I downloaded the routing diagrams from the workshop manual and (from memory) the throttle and brake cables route down the right hand side of the frame, which frees up the left side for the other cables. I'm moving the horn to...

    Worth changing harness?

    Hey man, cheers for the response. I've bought a second hand triple from an N bike so the holes shouldn't be an issue now (just got to work out how to take the thing off. My triple was pretty scratched up too so I thought better to replace it than tap into it. I'm 50/50 on whether to buy a...

    Worth changing harness?

    Only my second post here but I've been reading A LOT on the naked conversion. I'm going for an OEM conversion and have purchased pretty much all the parts to do this (down to the radiator hose). The only thing that's putting me off is soldering the wires etc. I'm ok at soldering, I'm just...
