Would be helpful to know what bike, model, year, styling changes you've made to provide some input.

Thanks! For a first time amateur I'm pretty proud of myself lol, though I felt like I could have done better. Really gotta think like 10 steps ahead when re-wiring from scratch otherwise you gotta keep going back and re-doing things lol. 

It should be a lot better when I make an actual tray and go with a smaller battery.

Would like a pic from the side. Curious to see where you put R/R, solenoid, etc.

I believe the solenoid is in its original position and the R/R is right next to the solenoid, so nothing special in terms of placement. Next step is to fab up a tray to put everything in.

Only picture I could find when it was being put back together.
