The changes to the lighting regulations have already been made....The available information is both confusing and subject to opinion it seems....Also there's the question of whether what can pass an MOT test is then road legal...and of course, most classics don't need an MOT....:laughing: ...
Life would be so much simpler without the people who have to justify their employment by solving non existent problems by the application of new rules...Ian

Hi With an avionics guy made my own wiring harness, added to my maintenance manual a copy of the wiring harness we made

Post-war MG Harnesses are no good for making authentic wartime motorcycle harnesses. We need black cable with small coloured rings;..No post-war bullet connectors either.

In terms of legality, my understanding is that LEDs have never really been 'legal' as the statutes stipulate minimum bulb wattages...but the LEDs are brighter, so it's a nonsense.

What the hell, we're motorcyclists and most of us have spent the best part of half a century breaking one law or another. :relaxed:

'Always break at least one rule a day'...One of my favourite sayings...Ian

Is there a detachable connection in the genuine loom to enable the rear lower mudguard to be removed? If so, where & what is it?

Yes Bob! It's a single screw together bullet connector. There are, or have been repros around. Ron

Thanks Ron.
I currently use a couple of rubber shrouded push in connectors (tail & brake lights & run on the left side to accommodate the stop switch).
It gives a reasonable '40s-'50s effect but it's always good to know how things were really set up.
