wiring: about to set a match to it!
Hello I am working on a 1990 XL 883. I got it from a guy that began having problems with it, it was a running bike sometimes. After fixing all the minor things I had to tackle the wiring, one of the main issues was the starter relay would just click but the bike wouldn't start. I am mechanically inclined and have built a few bikes and cars, so since the wiring had been hacked so bad and was missing over half the original stuff I decided to rewire the entire bike (like I said I've done it before) so other than time no biggie. well today I have all the main wires hooked up all other wires are ran but stubbed at location, hit the key and the same thing. just the relay click, I have replaced the relay with a new one and even took the one off my running bike to double check, still the same. I can get it to start if I run a jumper from the bottom of the starter to the battery? So would that be the starter solenoid? I'm about to give up on it and sell it. Thanks Matt
