Cables ain't as bad as it looks 'Bones' only in place not connected........ Thanks for your comments guys. John - will be out as soon as running a business, paying for a wedding and looking after my fiancee and baby boy will allow. We're getting closer now though...... Shrew - a cutdown front mudguard is planned but will be one of the last jobs to do.........

Adam, yer gotta be taking the piss with that throttle cable ;D
Undo the banjos (point hbar one downwards)and route hose close to body (using p clip) and take up slack by routing over fork around the front to caliper.
The throttle cable .... well i dunno. Dunno if that will be allowed tbh. I wouldnt race like that. I'd put it inside. My throttle is quick action as you know. You dont need all that hanging out the front.

Why not, get the scooter finished then bring it to a meeting and let the 3 scrutineers look it over. just like jiggsy did with his group 6. That way if there are any issues you can sort them before race day. Personally i would route both cables inside the frame. Cheers john
