ok so im currently making a race loom out of my road loom now i found a race loom diagram someone had made, but it included the charging system, regulator/alternator.
This:
Now im running total loss , ive edited out what i thinki dont need on this photo, can someone confirm that im not comepletely useless with wiring

Re: Race loom Diagram
looks correct to me, ive done colour maps of the L1-5 wiring diagram, along with detailed steps on how to convert to a race loom, as well as removing the fuel pump, alternator reg/rec, and starter motor (for those with a race starter).
one thing i would add, is if you run total loss and can be forgetfull wire back in your oil pressure light. no only will this indicate if you get a total loss of oil pressure, but when the bike is running the light will be off, and it will come back on when you hit the kill switch...its a good reminder to disconnect your battery at the end of a session/night.

Re: Race loom Diagram
cheers for the replies, im pretty sure ive done everything right, only have to solder a few wires together now and solder in the resistor.
Yeah i was planning to keep the oil pressure light, its not really worth wiring in the neutral light is there?
I will see if ive done everything right soon when i try starting it

Re: Race loom Diagram
again, neutral light is up to you, but its easier to see if you're in neutral than to see that you have oil pressure...ChowderV4 wrote:cheers for the replies, im pretty sure ive done everything right, only have to solder a few wires together now and solder in the resistor.

ive written a post about the L1-L4 (L5 is almost the same) wiring along with a conversion to a full race loom (-alternator, -fuel pump relay, -starter) if you need to double check.

Re: Race loom Diagram
ok so ive plugged everything into the loom, i have power, temp guage moves when killswitch is on.
When i press the starter i get a click from the starter solonoid the tacho will move if the start button is held down, but it isnt cranking.
Any ideas before i start panicing , i have followed the race diagram on here

Re: Race loom Diagram
and in regards to the resistor i used these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111255175253? ... 1439.l2649
was told blue 100 ohms , is that different to these , and have i got the wrong ones

Re: Race loom Diagram
0.25W...im pretty sure if you dont want it to burn out you will need at least 1W.

cheers for that, if the new resistor doesnt sort it i will give him a ringmatthew wrote:I would get intouch with Rodger at rmkd if i wer you hes a genious with wireing an will tel you over the phone wats wrong.
