I have owned at least 250 Limey motorcycles of different brands and varities----over a 35 year period---- The absolute weakest link in all of these bikes was the electrical system---bar none---

It's hell driving home from a night of intense elbow exersizing, and have to be runningwith the parking lamp only on--because the wiring harness, has gone into a nuclear meltdown situation----or the mag /dyno has fried, or many of other things that I have mostly forgotten about----

Joe Lucas once said in the early 20's--" A gentleman does not motor about after dark" --

He was cooked----much like his product's---:>)
