[TheDirtyJuan]

Hey guys im almost done with my cb900f and the last thing j need to do is build a box for the battery, solenoid, regulator etc. how have people been going about doing this? Can things touch if wrapped in electrical tape? Also what about the "live" terminal on the solenoid. I have no idea what this is either I lost my book and im waiting for my new one go come in. Im very frustrated I just wanna ride this thing lol. Please do the ton gods help me brap.

Acording to the parts diagram on cmsnl.com it is the spark units. I added the address so you can check it out.

Just build a box that will fit when you need and fit where you need it.

Both terminals on the solenoid should be well insulated to prevent short circuits.

Make sure those spark units have airflow as they are known to overheat and fail (they also burn out if you leave ignition on with out engine running)
It would probably be a good idea to mount them on a heatsink rather than back to back as you have in picture

Make sure you can't see the wires on the ones you have because these are always potted and when they overheat it tends to melt.
Yours seem to look okay but if you can see the wires you should probably replace.
