I've recently acquired an accident damaged V Raptor 1000 and will be bringing it back to life as a naked bike for now and maybe a cafe racer as a winter project next year (we'll see what the finances say next year after Christmas!) it has damage to the fairing and broken horns, right indicator pod so pretty much unviable to repair as a V.
I've always thought they would make a great retro cafe racer with the trellis frame and TL donk, but for now I just want to ride it and I'll want something to do over the winter months.
I've taken the front end off but am waiting on some parts to arrive before going any further. One of the things I don't like is the dash. That poxy tacho doesn't do it for me at all. I have a Honda VTR1000 dash cluster from a 2004 model with the same 16 pin socket at the back which looks much nicer than the Cagiva unit. I was going to use it instead. I've connected it to the bike and started the bike, but nothing happening on the dash...no idiot lights, no needle movement, nada...
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/sad.gif)
I've found the 16 pin position wiring colours for the Cagiva on this forum. I've jumped on a Honda forum but can't find the pin location meanings for the VTR dash.
Any help appreciated. My next option would be an aftermarket digital dash but I'd like to use what I already have.
Cheers
