HI there,


A few weeks ago my tail tidy decided to snap in half, which is far from ideal.. :roll:

Anywho, I've bought a new tail tidy but didn't take into account having to remove and replace the electronics. I've been unable to find a wiring diagram in the Haynes manual I have, just to check through, but the wires are all obviously there and it's just a case of (I think?) having to cut the cable in order to remove the old bulbs through the tail tidy.


i've ordered a set of these connector rated at 5 Amp. Will this be enough? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/High-Quality-Connector-Strip-12-Way-Block-3-5-10-15-30-60-Amp-Electrical-Wire/132358819204?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=431687060451&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648


I've asked my local bike guy, £100 for it fitted but I think I could give it a go myself; just want to make sure the electronics will be ok and not start melting the bike.

I put a tail tidy on my MT, it was all pretty straight forward though, mostly just "plug and play" type connectors. I've done the same as you though, started a job and realised its outside of my capability, ended up down the garage. Fair play to you for having a go, a lot of people wouldn't :thumb:
