You don't need to erase it, you need to post some pictures of melted wires to keep us nosy bastards busy.

Lager always concentrates my fingers nicely, especially after the 9th.
I could post up a couple of pics of me lying next to a smoking loom, but I'm not going to start on my weaving hobby now!
Pics, pics, pics...... we may have to ask Honda to recall our bikes to repair this inherent fault.
