Cabling and wiring

I have no photos of this phase. I did take some but the card for my digi camera gave up the ghost so they are lost. No problem, as there really isn't much to see. I pretty much followed the routing guides in Sticky's Lambretta manual, and I used strong and long cable ties to mock it all up, then checked everything was working (start up, test lights, brakes etc.) before fitting the aluminium ties.

I did make a rather annoying mistake when fitting the bodywork back on though. I stretched the throttle cable out of place with the legshields, and when I discovered this rather than remove the legshields again (which were a pain to fit as they are a bit mis-shapen in some places) I had to fiddle with the cable in situ beneath the bike.
