ZXR750 Toil.

Discussion in 'UK Motorcycles' started by eric the brave, Jan 31, 2004.

  1. I've just spent the evening in the garage fettling the ZXR. Sorting out
    fitting the original pillion seat so I can carry luggage Le-Mans. But no
    spent all evening re-routing the wiring harness [1]. At least I have a
    genuine Kwak manual that shows the proper route. I've used about 30
    cable ties and re-done some self bonding tape work. No more wires free
    to rub on metal.

    [1] Two many loose wires rubbing on metal bits.

  3. Oh yes indeed. I take it you didn't have the luxury of the ZXR750L
    supplement. It shows in great detail all the pipe and wiring loom paths
    round the frame. Including all the cable tie positions.

    I've removed the blue transfer from the original tail side panels. I'm
    awaiting someone to spray the white bits white again. You did say you
    had a lot of bother with the wiring loom though. It certainly fits like
    a glove now I've re-routed it.

    Roll on Le-mans...

    I never bothered with such wussy things ;-)

    Yes I had a few problems with the loom. Water had got into it somehow so
    the connectors were soaking in a bath of water. This caused loads of
    intermittent faults until I stripped it, replaced a few wires and new
    connectors. From that day on I had no problems.

    How is it running now?
