As of September 2014 the FI is in this state, mounted on the GL1000, ready for electronics. There were a number of adjustments I had to do in order to fit everything in place. That said, you must realize that fitting is a part of this kind of customization, so be not afraid, just make sure you maintain the structural integrity of the frame. When I began this project I spent some time reinforcing the frame just for this purpose.



 Right side showing fuel pressure regulator, fuel rail, injectors and plugs that injectors fit into.
 Front view showing throttle position sensor and wiring harness.
 Left side, fuel rail. I had to use a couple of  3/8" nuts as spacers to move left stiffener forward to clear TPS, at left.
 Looking down, front is to left. Note that I removed the cross bar to clear for fuel crossover tube. Also note, I removed bottom half of the two gussets. One is visible over the pressure regular, it is close, but does not touch.
 Looking from right side of bike you can see where left fuel rail clears the left side gusset.
 Here you see the pressure regulator, having had the fuel rail shortened and the mounting flange rotated to clear frame where lower half of gusset was removed.
 Fuel filter mounted where mechanical pump used to reside
Left side showing external fuel pump mounted under tank. I may do an in-tank fuel pump at a later date.
