Nice project Chris

I thought about this myself seems the perfect combination of gen2 power and gen1 simple electronics ... I’ve had a gen2 motor for at least 2 years and done nothing with it .

The showers always look good but not sure on the actual gain probably at the top end of the Rev range no doubt ....but you’ll be in an exclusive club alright

Remember not every expert that tells you stuff works is right .... even worse if they are selling the stuff

Very true.
Some people will tell lies, others may not tell the whole truth to sell something and others may rely on others for sales word of mouth.

Buyer beware at all times.

Use your own common sense and if it sounds to good to be true then it probably is.

Being able to play around with the set up is a bonus & being able to do the mods is great. 

I had a shower kit years back & sold it when the tri colour went that I hadn't got round to fitting so this is another crack at it. 
Yeah think your on the money with more higher up but we'll see when the time comes

Very true sir

Looms had an alarm previously, not taken out the best & some of the soldering is questionable. 
Can sort that. 
Need to wrap the cabling but the rear taking shape
Relocating the rectifier to the gen2 position

Got to work out fuse box mountings

It's a good idea unwrapping the harness like that as you fit proper guage modern wiring and also custom wrap it after for much better routing Thumbs Up

Spent today working on the front end

As most know the gen1 has both fuse/relay boxes at the front & trying to get them to fit a gen2
There's no room to hide anything really

So after a couple of messages to Adam checking on routings from his gen2 tuono. 

I set about stripping & relocating the boxes to the rear
Trial fitted a spare set of boxes I had. 
Close clearances but they clear
Got most wiring pulled from main loom where needs to be. 
Need to purchase some cabling to extend so routes back

Some more shoddy soldering on this loom I found 

But I decided while I had the headlights fitted looking at space I trialled the carbon fairing, rested in place. Will need a touch of fettling, manipulation but should look good.

That wiring is a right mess! The soldering equivalent of a granny knot ha. Front end looking good though. Only downside is having to take the tail off to get to the fuses and relays but you don't need quick access to them do you.

Was thinking they are much nicer than the Halfords jack stands I use.

Yep, the loom has certainly had the blind leading the blind on it before. 

On a O.e gen2 there fusebox is in the back but about half the size compared to the gen1's

The delivery came of the new cabling.
So I've made way & got the fusebox end all boxed off. 
I'm half way through the relays, but I need a few more metres of 2 different colours. 

Here's the fuse box ready for mounting once I've wrapped the wires in fabric tape

The rear part of loom from fuel pump area back is done.

Fusebox & relay box, all mounted & wiring finished. 
Moved a few wiring routes to make it better. 
Need the uprated starter cables to finish that part. 
1 connector to attach on indicator cable needed.
I've moved the diagnostic wires to a switch mounted on rear subframe & rewired the derestriction wires ready to install to a switch for dual maps. 

Continuely fixing any bad bits, as shown

Clearance on the boxes is more than originally thought  which is a bonus.
I may have to shorten some of the original loom that's still left as think there will be a bit of overlenght trying to tuck away. 

Passed the new cabling from the boxes upto behind the clock area to connect up. 
Then it'll be time to wire the switchgear plugs back in. 
Probably a couple of custom runs around the inside of frame for them.

Well the soldering iron has bit the dust so replacement is on the way.

Paulw dropped of the donor gen1 motor ready for me to ride for the rest of conversion parts to go on the gen2 motor.

Set too with that so,
Flywheel, stator & case fitted
Front cam sprockets
Cam sensor & made the groove in head to pass through. 
Removed the extra metal so the gen1 cam cover fits
Blank replaced with 2nd temp sensor
Couple little bits, neutral light switch, magnetic drain, switched to short filter
Upgrade the slave. 
Started on reattaching some of the water pipes.

Hopefully have all boxed off this week then it'll be back to the loom

Mark,

I haven't, just need to make sure no sharps but may look a touch rough at edges if makes sense but it isn't seen

I'll be honest once you have all the parts to swap over in the same place it's a piece of cake.
Having the engines side by side I could compare where & how much needed removing

Crank was already locked
I secured cams to chain & removed
Blocked/covered as much as possible 
Then basically the piece to remove vertical cut either side then horizontal to then remove the piece. 
Dremel, hacksaw blade & drill in my case
I cleaned out everything, hoover, brush, compressed air. 
Then pulled the buckets & cleaned them down for piece of mind too
