Earth Straps
« on: 10 February 2009, 12:38 »
My bonnet earth strap is broken and the one that goes from rocker cover to coil mount point has seen better days so I'm going to replace them both.

Looked on GSF and ECP websites but can't see them. Looked on ebay but £14 for a cheap bit of insulated wire with 2 terminals seems a bit steep. Where's the best place to get em?

Hi
Make one up.
It is an earth strap, it does not need insulation i think, just some coating to keep moisture away.
