    Sounds like a direct short and you'll probably need another ignition. If you have a good minimal diagram just wire it up yourself and use a universal ignition. There's a couple of diagrams in the threads if you need one.

    the welds at the fender broke so i cut it off im gonna put a longer trailer fender on pretty soon anyway so i can fit a pillion pad so i can have a passenger or luggage fit there too also with it off it make it easier to get on and of without having to lift my leg so high
