My 2006 ST1300 and probably all, had that exact same yellow ground junction box.🙄😡. Only difference is it's located up near the windshield. I'm glad my XX back in the day was carbd. Not "stupid." The troubled bit is well-wrapped up. Considering most bikes don't make it 10 years, they probably never saw this as being a potential from trouble. Just as the Prius (my gen) has wires made with a coating that rodents find tasty. Nice idea...just not thought through very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in PA Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 There is no reason to take a ground several feet to ground it. Attach it to the frame/chassis at it's source. You certainly don't run 10-15 or more grounds through a connector. Rodents HAVE to chew to survive. Their front teeth never stop growing so they must chew. We had a bunch of vehicles die in the parking area at work over a shift. Groundhogs were going up into the engine bays chewing on wires. Didn't matter make, model, year. We had to trap a bunch of them to stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
