So, I've been working on and riding(when it runs) my 2k buell x1 for a while now. I finally got around to getting a new speed sensor last weekend and while i was messing with it decided to wrap the headers. As i was tracing the wires for the speed sensor I got ahead of myself and started to disconnect the battery pos side first. A no-no, but I was excited. I arced out on the rear jug. I continued putting the sensor in and wrapping the header, kind of worried maybe something got fried. got it all done, tried to start her up, and no spark. I read and read, came up with the cam pasition sensor/plate. Traded off a brand new rear hugger for a used sensor. Just put it in tonight and no change, so i tested the old one(after cutting the wires i could do that), its fine. Theres something going on between the sensor and the coil. Well, while testing the old(original) sensor, I spliced in 3in jumpers with scotchlocks and wirenuts. the scotchlock on the hot wire came loose and grounded out on the drive pulley. I cant even get it to turn over now. Hooked up the ecmspy and it wont read at all. Does anyone know,what the hell I did to it?? I'm getting really frustrated.
