446 viewsThe left side mounted. The wiring of the pigtail and such was all pushed forward, thus being outside of the seat pan just like the resistor. The pigtail length was 15cm and that gave plenty of slack to add the resistor leads to.

439 viewsIt seems that the locating pin on the '06 throttle clamp is 180-degrees off compared to later models. The fix was simple: Use a 5/32" drill bit and drill straight through the existing hole. Easy-peasy!

437 viewsWhat was available given the meager selection at the FLAPS which caters to the V8 and truck crowd. 500-ohms per foot is dang good when compared to what Accel wires had and the stock Ducati ones!

426 viewsThe 90-degree boot is on the wire and ready to be slid down. As per the instructions, just a spritz (very light coat) of WD-40 really helps move the boot down the wire.

425 viewsPut the plug wire on the spark plug and figure out how long you need it. This was a short wire and I had half left over. Motorcycle spark plug wires tend to be shorter than your average V8.
