Title: Some jackwagon tried to hotwire my bike Post by striknein on 06/21/16 at 15:52:45 So, yeah. They clipped the wires to the ignition switch and twisted them all together. The kill switch was still open. Jerks. The bugger of it all is that I moved into a new apartment WITH locked garage space 2 days ago, but I couldn't park the bike there because of all the crap waiting to get moved upstairs. Does anyone know the gauge of the 4 wires running to the switch? I'm getting ready to order connectors and a crimper while at work, don't have the bike in front of me. |

Title: Re: Some jackwagon tried to hotwire my bike Post by stewmills on 06/22/16 at 08:36:01 Maybe he meant (or assumed jokingly) that the "ratcheting crimper" was to pinch your 'manhood' when you sit on the seat trying to steal the bike. Or maybe not. :-? :-? |
Title: Re: Some jackwagon tried to hotwire my bike Post by Ruttly on 06/22/16 at 12:21:45 Think 14 and/or 16 gauge. Should be a easy repair. |

Yeah, piece of cake... That still required 2 trips to the auto parts store. One of the fuses blew. |
