Update time

We had a long, rainy summer here; so I got quite a bit done on my Rune project. After reuniting the motor and frame, I finished (mostly) roughing the wiring. I then took the frame off of the motor and detailed the wiring harness, installing conduit along the way.

 

[Dr. Dave]

More pics

I then reunited the frame and motor AGAIN, and torqued the motor mount bolts to spec.

 

[Dr. Dave]

Because the oem middle mounts are very visible on this bike, I made new ones and had them chromed by Chrome Masters. Original mount on the left, my custom on the right (before chroming).
