Like bending a bit of metal backwards and forwards until it breaks, pretty much the same can happen with electrical wires.
The steering head area is a common place for breaks in wires as in moving the bars, the wires bend back and to.
The fattest wires being stiffer bend less well and are most likely to break. It sounds to me like the main wire to the ignition and lights has let go.
You will need a meter ( or a bulb and a couple of wires) and a wiring diagram would be a big help. Find where isn't getting an electrical supply and then you will have identified where the fault lies.
As a start I'd try the biggest wire going to the ignition switch .... it may well be red.
Having said all that , yeah it could be an earth lead, but the same principle applies ____________________ All the above is my personal opinion, you can see my lips move, but I'm talking out of my arse.
I've been riding, and fixing , bikes for 50 years, in that time the more I learn, the less I am absolutely sure of..... |
