Hi, haven't been able to get on the site since it went to it's new look. So I just changed to a new name. New sight new name.
The 07' TW has some 30k miles now and died, no compression. So I did a top end. Had to bore the cylinder 50 over.
It wouldn't start after I assembled the engine. No spark. I found the wires from the stator finally cut through due to their routing to the outside of the case. I have had the case cover off three or four times in the bikes history and was befuddled why it was just pinched between the case and it's cover not ran through a groove or through a grommet. I figured the Yamaha engineers knew better than me but I guess not as the wires finally cut through.
Are they all pinched between the case and it's cover? I saw there was a plastic insert that might have been engineered for the wires to go through but the wire is not long enough and it fits flush to the case so it would pinch the wires as well and it looks like it might put the wires close to the sprocket/chain.
My idea it to solder some wire between the cut wires to make it longer and either use the plastic insert to run the wire through or whittle a slot in the case cover where the wires were originally ran.
Any ideas?
