Been a little while since I was able to update. Not a ton of progress, mostly been discussing the next piece of the puzzle which is the front end. Been in contact with Cognito over the last week ironing out some details, but i think were close to settling on the setup were looking for. Then we just have to pay for it, which is the scary part.
As for progress on the motorcycle...Was able to get the rear fender picked up finally and installed. This allowed to begin to finish up the rear section of the wiring. Got the tail light and blinkers wired up and set in place. Began to set the rest of the harness in place and check lengths and figment. So far so good, looks like i only have to extend one section, simply because I do not like that you can see the plug from the side. I'd like to hide it behind one of the frame tubes. Call it OCD but I think most of the wiring should be invisible if possible.
Somehow managed to fit all the wiring through the small hole in the fender. With the proper amount of lube and force, anything will fit anywhere.
Dropped off the front and rear wheel with the powder coater as well as the front and rear hub. Getting them all done in gloss black. Plan to go with polished spokes. We have a spare front and rear complete wheel and hub set up so this fist one will just be a test run. To see what it will look like, and to try my hand at spoking and then trueing the wheels. Have not decided if I'll just lace my own wheel onto the cognito hub or go with one they provide. Time will tell.
