The design of the cross-bracing is essentially as per the superbikes (888/916) which are otherwise similar to the Monster and as I knew I could no longer use the airbox I didn't need to leave the space empty.

I then fitted a carbon fibre sheet to the top of the coils to house the other electrics; relays, starter solenoid, headlight ballast etc. and the ignitech can be seen in the picture to the front right of the battery. It means there's a lot of wiring under there but everything is easily accessible but completely hidden when the tank is in place.
