Happy to try and help, all the different LED strips come from Ebay, tdr-motopro 1, colortop9, happyfish2012 has white LED but single spacing not the double spacing, figured if I get enough different types one would work, and ordered double just in case, they're only a dollar or two.

Will definitely look into the cotton batting next time with the seat, thanks.

A lot of work to reposition ECU, Honda's packaging for the undertail exhaust affected much of the electrics from the previous generation, as you know, 2 x 33 pin plugs and ECU mounted front right on these V-Tec, looking into chopping away the flapper section of airbox and mounting it there, drill another hole in the air box, Titans video showed his ECU mounted atop the airbox, under the tank.

Might reposition the fuse box under the seat, less wires.

Do many Build Off's actually finish ?, so much to do and usually at least twice, I can see why some roll over into the next year.

Thanks for the tips. I like the double led look.

I have a vtec here, an 05. I bought it new it's my faired commuter and touring bike, love my VFRs.

Wires are wires, you can make em longer or shorter as needed, you'll want the correct crimps and crimping tool though in addition to a soldering iron.

Finishing/not finishing depends on the project, big projects take more time

I finish them when i concentrate on one build ...... so not very often

I was thumbing through bonehead's build just now and was reminded how much I love white bikes. The paint on this tank looks killer.

Shiny, I'm thinking of idea's to add some contrast and colour like what your doing, rather than just a plane old white bike.

This shared experience is taking this bike in a direction that I didn't think I was capable of, which I am surprised and pleased with......thanks to all..
