I took half the loom out of a 14 years ago after a bike shop had fitted it all wrong so nothing connected properly. The engine didn't come out for that either. Oddly enough after routing it properly the wires were all long enough to reach the connectors they attach too...

Having said that, I do believe the order specified in the manual is loom, airbox & then engine. So it's probably easier that way.

When the engine and airbox are already out, it is no no-brainer to put the loom in before the former. Just mentioned that it is possible to get the loom in whith engine in place, so some poor soul doesn't take engine out to change the loom  ;)

Just an update. Unfortunately I am away to sea in Angola for a few weeks oh joy! , so no progress for a while.
Lots of parts cleaned and painted. Waiting on tank from paint and forks for referb and paint.
Hopefully back on the road end of May.

Hang the expense!
Put another pea in the soup!

Progress! My painter just sent me these photos.
Forks still to do.
