[QUOTE="1RedVincati, post: 162819, member: 5352"] Hi so recently imported a bike "VINCATI" from AUS my late fathers and when i connected battery leads to new battery (its been sitting about 6 years) two of the connecting battery wires were red one went to head light which is the brain and one went to rear lights i figured they were hot or positive wires but they were neg ground wires and melted a ground wire and blew a fuse. So I replaced wire and followed all wires and got familiar with wire loom everything works light, horn, blinkers but when i plug in rectifier from generator it sparks and pulls from amp meter when is nt running is it possible I shorted it out ? where do i get a new one. Thanks for an help [/QUOTE]
