MY bike is dead!!!!

[t-homo]

All I can think of is fuses, unless somewhere a 12 volt wire got too hot and melted the coating and is now shorting the whole bike out. Even with low voltage on the battery there would still be headlights.

Probably shorted the battery and left it that way and killed the battery.

that sounds about right.

tell your friend you don't work on electrical with the fucking power on. dumbass needs to pay to fix your bike from someone that knows what the fuck they are doing.

agreed.

Yeah replace the battery. he probably fucked the battery like Trip said.

and yeah... fuck I won't even fuck with MY bike if I don't know what I'm doing.. let alone someone elses! damn...

hope it gets sorted out quick!

oh and make sure HE's paying

So lets say what my friend said was true. If he did miss wire the signals, I would think the fuse for the signals would blow. I just dont get it the bike acts like it has no battery. I put the battery on charge and is charging. I should be able to push start it if the battery is dead.

Guys, I am so worrying about having my bike back on the road, I really aint thinking bout.. dumb dick the electricial specialist... He used to install car stereos at best buy before joining the Air Force..

Not always true... bikes aren't completly like cars... the alternators don't put out as much juice... so starting an FI bike may not work by push start... didn't work on my friends SV when his battery died...

don't know for sure though...

but like DLit said... talk to a dealer see if they know of a hidden master fuse.

[DLIT]

Is there another location where other fuses hide? Have you checked? A spark, huh? That's weird.
