Hi All
I've got a 2001 XL1200s, It has always been a great starter ,suddenly only got a click when start button was pressed, found that the main live lead from the battery to the starter motor had Broken, I've just replaced this & tried to start the bike again only to notice smoke coming from new lead down by the the starter moter, This has melted the insulation.
My question, did the same problem cause origional cable to fail? or have I damaged something during my repair?
