Check to make sure your plug wires are attached to the part of the frame behind the rear cylinder, this is my second M8 I have owned where the wires were not attached properly from the factory, 1 wire shows signs of the outer jacket having a burn mark

I am not very camera savvy, my wife is so I will try to get her to snap a picture
 
Here is a video showing how to change the wires, @ about 6:19 on the video you can clearly see where the wires attach to the backbone part of the frame

If you look at the area under the ( front) seat, from the left side of your bike you get a straight shot @ seeing the wires and how they clip to the frame

 

Now I’m confused as a goat on Astroturf…. Had the four grandkids over most of the day so I’m a little zonked out right now I feel like I went down the road with one wheel off and the axle dragging… I’ll try to look at the pictures later tonight , Maybe I can figure it out then..?
