Believe it or not it's the wiring on a MOTORCYCLE. Stereo system, ABS brakes, fuel injection, computer controlled everything, yada, yada. I rode a bike to college my first two years with a pliers, cresent wrench, and screwdriver in the saddle bag and could fix nearly anything that went wrong. Now one would need Bill Hanlon in the saddle bag to fill with gas. For years I had a sign that said, "If it has more than two vacuum hoses (windshield wipers and vacuum advance) I don't work on them". Time to put the sign back up.
I don't know how to work on the new stuff either, Evan. SWMBO's 2008 Toyota goes to the dealer for oil changes.
Wow , that's awful . I too dislike working on the modern stuff . My Son is a Journeyman Mechanic for the L.A.P.D. and we often chat over lunch / dinner about the jobs he does as he's not afraid to dive right into jobs no one else will touch . He always says how patient and detailed ' meticulous ' my work is but I shudder to think of ripping into the main wiring harness of a new Charger Police Car .
Good one Joseph. It does look like the innards were transferred from a Goldwing. My nephew calls it a "Bagger" which may be some kind of slang for a Harley model---I don't know.
