Default front wiring harness help

Hey,

Anyone have any encouraging words on the best way to stuff my front wiring harness back in the frameafter swapping handlebars and controls?

I've sprayed wd 40 insideand gotten a wooden dowel to pushwith, but the first connector bends over rather than slides into the frame and it just seems like I'm gonna rip up connectors pushing so damn hard.

I am going to pull the rear wheel off later to replace tire. According to the manual, it's possible to get through to an opening in the fender to pull from. Has anyone tried this?

Did you take the cover thats under the tank at the neck of the frame off. Then you can pull wires from that way. I know I'm not explaning it very well but there is a plastic cover under there that will give you some access. Smiley
