New problem: electrics turning off at random intervals

[Morcs]

I think it's well established on KB that I'm an idiot.

The problem hasn't reoccurred since tightening the terminals again. Bike still runs like shit but at least it doesn't cut out like before.

You aint an idiot. You bought a bloody good bike that turned out to be a lemon. Shit happens to the best of us.

I also had the terminal problem the other day, was quite frustrating riding with a terminal I knew i couldnt tighten (nut was knackered) and having to pull the bike apart on the side of the motorway in rush hour to fix it. It sucked.

Thanks for the kind words, but I wasn't necessarily talking about the purchase of the VFR making me an idiot. Refer to my profile pic.

I've recently acquired a Haynes manual for it. I'm quite keen to work my way through it fixing everything. Plus I'd like to rip it apart and paint up everything in my tech class. It's cost me as much as a restoration project should, lets make it one

Luckily the bike had a tool bag when it happened to me or I'd have been stuck in the middle of nowhere.
