Hey Forum,
I recently started a project 1985 vt500, i'm planning to restore it and after that I will most likely start chopping away at it. Thing is, the fuse box itself on this bike is this ugly looking box right in the middle of the handlebars.
I was wondering if it would be possible to remove that fusebox and consolidate most if not all of the wiring. My full idea of this bike is to remove the headlight, gauges and fusebox all together while adding in a small lightbar as a headlight, and an all in one digital tach.
Also, i wanted to know if anyone knows if changing out the handlebars will affect my cable lengths, and if I get a bar that has similar rise and height, will i have to replace the cables and master cylinder anyways?
If my dreams here are out of the realm of possibility, tell me so. If not, and if anyone has any experience with anything i've mentioned above please let me know, id love to hear all ideas.
Thanks
