Re: starter not running
So when you cut the flap, there is a chance for water to enter the box. Did you tape it?

Re: starter not running
I just buy the terminals that are small enough for the screws and open up the other end with a small flat blade screw driver, then crimp and shrink tube...

Re: starter not running
Water getting at the terminals has never been a problem. Water can get into the connector on top of the solenoid isn't sealed, nor are any of the other connectors on the bike.

Re: starter not running
I know a local chap who wants to throw a box of 'Wing parts my way, including a starter from an 1100 w/ 35k-ish miles on it. Lemme know if it turns out to be the starter.
