When 2-4 are grounded (from the gear position switch on the back of the transmission) the cluster will light up the N indicator lamp in the cluster and also put out 12V on pin 5 which is a green/black wire that goes to the start button.

Pins 2 - 4 are inputs, not outputs. As Duck says, the signals present on them represent a code that indicates the gear. Gear "0" is all inputs grounded.
If you have removed the OEM cluster, then you have to have a way to decode the input to produce neutral when gear "0" is selected.

Yeah that's what I suspected I hoped it was separate to the whole gear indication. How complicated is the modification and does anyone know a thread where someones attempted it? As I really feel I should have a neutral light, is there a different way you can add one?

For the UK MOT all you need is:
1. A high-beam indicator
2. An indicator repeater; and only then if you can't see all four indicators at the same time.
What you'd be stupid not to have:
1. A neutral light
2. An oil pressure light (or if you're a Kawasaki: an oil level light. Never did get that one...)
So that covers just about all Britbikes from about 1960 onwards
Sensible-to-have:
1. Anything that gives you an indication of parts of the engine e.g. the generator, fuel level warning (and only that because there's no reserve switch)
Icing on the cake:
1. Anything like the GPI.
But then again, some of the bikes I rode early in my career had no neutral light and no indicators from new. You soon learned where neutral was; or in the case of the Bridgestone rotary gearbox, not to go directly from top to first on a downchange (Rick?).

The oil light should work if you earth the end at the pressure switch. Battery light - you'll have to wait till start up and check whether it goes out.
Now, list here everything you've done; I want to check that you're not heading into SVA (Single Vehicle Authorisation) territory. That's a whole new ball of wool.

The indicator repeater is the amber (sometimes green as on the K) light in the instrument panel that flashes in time with the indicators. Some bikes have two (one for each side, like the K) and some have only one. If you fit one for each side then you run the same coloured wire for that side to the repeater bulb and earth the other side of the repeater. On a K that's a blue/black wire for the right side and a blue/red wire for the left side. For a single repeater bulb, you would connect the K blue/black wire to one side of the bulb and the blue/red wire to the other side of the bulb. On the face of it that should not work because you appear to be feeding two positives to the indicator repeater. In operation, only one side gets 12 volts (the side that is flashing) and the other side earths through the non-flashing bulb filaments. If you're doing any form of physics, your tutor can give you the lowdown on the whys and wherefores of it working.
The oil pressure switch is the brown/green wire low down and under the oil and water pump assembly at the front of the bike. Chances are, if you try to pull the rubber cover off then everything will split. Trace it back up to the front right of the frame: IIRC it's the only 'single' connector in the wiring loom. Earth the end that disappears into the main wiring loom.
There's a list of 'points' for certain types of modification. Once you exceed a certain number of points, it becomes a completely new vehicle and has to be tested as such. Some mods are instant 'new machine'. If it requires an MSVA, when you have passed the MSVA test, only then can you get it MOT'd. These links should help:-

I think you maybe in MSVA territory because you've modified the frame (seat loop). Best talk to a local MOT inspector or ring VOSA and have a chat with them. You really don't want to get into trouble with the law.

Not one hundred percent sure but, what if you connected both indicators each to the repeater and then the repeater to Earth. The relevant side should power the repeater.

Then you you also must add a diode between each circuit and the repeater,

Okay I think I'm going to try this after I've finished the cowl because I'm rushing to get that to the paint shop. I had a quick look and I think I know which wire it is, I'll attach a picture later.
In terms of structural the hoop is the only thing I've changed and that's now welded on. All the other changes have been tiny little things like different headlight, custom seat, speedometer stuff like that. Thanks for that document I've been looking for that for ages I just didn't know what to search. See picture.

I think it does come under the MSVA because moving the seat hoop is a structural change (unlike just cutting off or welding on new brackets). That's why I advised talking to VOSA.

Call them and get any confirmation by email. You may get told straight away not to worry. The real problem will come when you try to insure it. One of the questions you will be asked is 'have you made any mods to the bike?'; under that situation you will be in a position to quote chapter and verse:
Yes - it's been MSVA'd
Yes - VOSA said there is no need to MSVA and here's the proof.
If you don't comply with the absolute last letter of the insurance, the underwriters will wriggle out in the event of an accident. Remember: their loyalty is to their shareholders, not to you.

An ACU licence is a good idea but as ever, read the small print very carefully. I'm completely out of touch with the current ACU requirements.

Point 17 is the relevant one. It's not just you - it's the other rider that you hit/hits you.
Be patient so you can at least reach the qualifying age.

Ye I've heard of strips of tarmac near me I need to explore that idea!Dai wrote:I lament the dearth of old airfields where we learned to ride. I had the luxury of a mile of dead-straight runway with huge sweeping taxiways back to the start... they used to launch B-17s from there. Most old airfields are now nothing but housing estates.
An ACU licence is a good idea but as ever, read the small print very carefully. I'm completely out of touch with the current ACU requirements.

Definately not much left of it. Back then (1970s) it was still a Class 3 airfield i.e. open for use at your own risk, but no control tower etc.. The north side of the airfield is Bradley Woods where I fell out of more trees than enough. North of Bradley Woods on the A517 is where I got a Garelli Rekord moped up to an indicated 68mph down Shepherd's Hill... bollox, I'm getting old.
