thanks to OX and Chris mason
I started my R1 engine last night only had a little prob with the loom which OX soon new(its little things that when your so excited you dont
concentrate properly as the wire I got wrong was black and looked exactly like it was supposed to go on the negative of the battery it even had the
rubber boot cover when infact it was actually for the other sid eof the + relay).
thanks to chris for telling me which colour wires need modifying etc
the Engine fired up without hesitation
I even put my straight through Micron on for the occasion,,
Jesus what a noise 
trust me to all those in prebuild status this is the biggest spur on ever Im going in the garage tonight till 3am in the morning.. its given me a new
lease of life at 22!!!

answers in order
chris I would like it to be ready for tests in 6 weeks I am self employed so can dedicate time to it but sometimes I go into the garage and work on it
and before I know it 6 hours have gone past
rob no probs glad youve received
mike remembe on the loom a plug will only go into the same plug but female version or vica versa they dont make any same connector usually
so just make sure most are accounted for use fresh petrol
they will take a few days about the switch mate
ta chris
