Very good bike, BUT the electrics could be better positioned!!!

The cluster of connectors at the left of the fuel tank all have their "bums" showing to the front which is where the water drives in. Might be the Bristol area as well, they put so much salt on the road that in winter I turn white after a 20 mile ride to work!

Looking at the Z it has a plastic skirt which covers this area partly due to the headlight being mounted from the headstock and static rather than the forks and dynamic. ukiboy, I take it you have a Z from your avatar..?

I've been toying with the idea of fitting the OTR front end which is very similar to the Z. Plus it has a H4 and H7 lamp which gives me a backup light. If I don't change the front end I will fashion a deflector from thin plastic to protect the connectors.
