Let me know how you get on. If you can’t find suitable connectors, Bikers Toolbox do a good range of 6.3 and 2.4 multi block connectors compatible with many Japanese bikes. I’ve used loads of them on Kawasaki’s. 👍🏻

She’s a stunner for sure! Cheers for the photo! 👍🏻

Come on, don’t be shy, photos please!
