VTR miss at 5k
 
1 Attachment(s)
Can anyone with autoelectrical knowledge tell me why the HT leads on a VTR1000 would have a braided earth wire "appearing " from half way along the lead (from under a sheath for the want of a better word , but like an extra length of outer heatshrink ) and then running to an earth on the frame ?
Is this some sort of electrical suppressor ?
The whole idea of a possible earth strap connected to the HT lead has me wondering why they exist at all....the idea is to get all the charge to the plug...
Surely this could be a potential point for a misfire problem I have - the bike runs fine to 5k, and then acts like it has hit the rev limiter...
It is NOT carbs - been right trhough them 3 times .....in fact have it jetted so well from start to 5k.. Shocked

easy way to find out....remove strap at block end, start bike with strap taped off and see if it runs any better.
