:gunhead: The 3 yellow wires behind the battery on the GL1200 got seperated when th:Xey went on fire, the connecters are burnt off. Any ideas on how I reconnect them?

I soldered mine and taped them up well, better than using a connector block. I was actually lucky, mine melted together a few years ago but there was no stator damage. When I started the engine I used a meter to check and a good healthy 14 volts was going into the battery and no problems since then.Phew!

I'va managed to catch a few of these in the nick of time as well. Don't just assume the stator is roasted when the wires melt. Quite often it's a corroded connector block that causes the meltdown and if you catch the meltdown quickly enough you have a good chance of getting away lightly. Just check it out with a meter afterwards.
