Blade fuse holder ( Z900-Kz1000-A1)

Any one out there, kind enough to post a picture of a blade fuse holder that is neat and can be easily adapted to replace the standard Z900/Z1000 (3 fuse) plastic fuse-box. These old boxes with the large fuses always seem to be a burned-out mess. I didn't want to remove the steel holder!

That PnP looks convenient but you can just cut and crimp your own in too.

CWS has some nice electrical products available.
Just bought one of their center harnesses for the 650.


I soldered and shrink wrapped a modern blade type onto the stock set of wires.
One of our Euro members put me onto the box, but many are available in North America.

When splicing wires, try to use the ones that are made of heatshrink material, as they will shrink down when heated, sealing out possible corrosion causing moisture.





Here's the type that has built in solder, so no crimping is needed:

Thanks everyone, I'm overwhelmed by the response.
The nice part about the exercise, to find this replacement fuse holder, is that I have learnt about other products available. Thanks again!

I have been using the angled crimp connectors like in this pic on the end of the stock harness, plug the blade fuses into them, and lay them over inside the stock fuse box. Looks stock until you open it and still has the info inside. Minimal cost and better.
