Cheesy Crisps!
Apparently, the stator connector is known to be an issue on these bikes, usually due to corrosion. Rather than clean and reseat the connector, it's pretty common to cut the wires and solder them together.
I hope that A) that's why it looks like this and B) there's enough slack in the wire to fix it properly.
DPOs...gotta love 'em.
Removed and reinstalled the carbs (again...) since I used the wrong o rings on the fuel transfer tube. Fortunately I have a metric o ring kit in my stash and was able to find suitable replacements. BTW, wiping them down with a dab of Dawn on a fingertip makes seating them go smoothly...
