No problem man, nice to see this bike is getting appreciation all around. You might want to double check the related wires, and perhaps the stator? I am really not very sure, but I'm sure someone who knows more than I will be in shortly to help you out. Ride safe man.

 

is your bike making this sound while you are trying to turn it on?
