johnsnownw Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Looks good Drewps. You certainly have a lot more patience than me. If I had started that project when you did, and ran out of money, I probably would have sold a kidney to continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted August 21, 2010 Author Moderator Share Posted August 21, 2010 got me thoughts together regarding switches for the dipped lights and horn and have been playing around with brake banjo bolts and micro switches from Maplins. I figured that they can drive 2 solenoids under the seat for the amps. the banjo bolts can replace the lower lever clamps on the bars using a drill and cutting a new thread anyway here's the pikkies what I'm on about... I think i need to find a suitable rubber hood to go over the switch and around the 1st part of the bolt, any ideas where to get one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator drewpy Posted September 6, 2010 Author Moderator Share Posted September 6, 2010 Managed to fit one of the micro switches inplace of the clamp screw on the lever bracket looks quite smart just got to find a small rubber to fit over the switch ( I might ask Kev!, so Paul said!)
