It lives

Finally got this bad boy through an MOT and on the road. Had to ditch the battery eliminating capacitor I'd fitted, and go back to a battery, because the indicators have 21w bulbs and the front and rear lights were dimming when the indicators came on. Good job I didn't get carried away and start chopping off all the mounting points for the battery like I nearly did. All is not lost tho, I plan on fitting LED indicators (along with appropriate flasher relay of course) and seeing if that solves the issue so I can ditch the battery again, clean up the lines of it all and lose a bit of weight, although to be honest, if I take a dump before I go for a ride there will probably be an equivalent weight loss. Still it does look smart without the battery.
