The rear suspension isn’t returning, so it’s stretched out nicely.
The Inazuma 1200 has been added to the Watanabe SP2 lineup. Let’s get it installed.
We remove the battery case to take out the igniter. The lightening holes are pretty nice, aren’t they? Looks usable.
Usually we don’t use this blue bracket. Since it ends up with a similar shape, we’ll use it this time.
We rounded the corners with an 8R radius. Clean.
We enlarge the hole with a gasket punch. Since there are ribs standing up, we drill from the back. It never comes out perfectly straight.
We’ve marked the sizes, so it’s easy to check.
We crimp it with a crimping plier that works for spark plug wires, letting the serrations bite in.
The included terminal has a long crimp length, which is a pain. Vehicles where the straight section comes off are okay, but the oil-cooled is surprisingly tight.
The breather cover was in coastal condition, so we restored it.
After much deliberation, it only fits in the small parts tray, so this time we made it a bracket to stick on. (With a drop-off stopper, just in case.)
The aesthetics of dial-tight fit. The joy of the connector clearing slightly. Well, just how it worked out.
Sorry, we opened it without asking. That’s the layout.
The seat open-close choke idea was scrapped due to wire bracket shape issues. We’re installing it with Plan A.
