Lucky day! Found a blown battery fuse, $4.79 run to the auto parts store and its good to go! Everything works, wiring was ok. Must have grounded out something while hooking up the battery. Fell asleep last night with the service manual next to my pillow, dreamt of wiring all night, and ran through all the connections in my mind all day at work. I'm pretty relieved it was just a fuse. Just need to clean up and zip tie everything back together, then get the tank back on. I'll try to get some video of everything back together and functioning this weekend and post it up. Cheers all, time for some celebratory Red Breast!

I'll get some better pics this weekend, and try to get a video of the LEDs and speedo in action. The LEDs are nice and bright, the green one is super bright for some reason. Which is good with the jockey shift, periferal vision picks it up great so I know when I'm in N.

Thanks everyone for the support and props throughout the project. Can't wait to get the blue **** off the tires and get some decent pics. I'll put them up as soon as I do!
