Okay seriously I am. I need help and lots of it. I have a KZ750 Spectre and I can't get it to start I just bought a new igntion but things don't look so good. I pulled up the seat and well there is a crap load of wires the are cut!? I have a black wire which I assume is a ground wire that is just chillin. If anyone know alot about KZ750s could you email so I can figure out what I'm going to do. *~CoMpLeTeLy ReTaRdEd~*

Step one............get a manual. There is a wiring diagram in the back. Look on the Kawasaki web site. There are parts diagrams and ,I think, wiring diagrams under owner info. I am not familiar with the 750 Spectre, but my 1100 Spectre has a black wire bolted to the top of the battery box that is not hooked to anything. It is a ground wire for any optional piece of stuff that needs to be hooked up......have fun....chris3

And if you don't yet have a manual (strongly recommended that you purchase one (eBay is the source...and buy a genuine Kawasaki manual)) follow this link to a wiring diagram...find out which wires are cut...

Can you get a pic of those cut wires? Oh yeah "Venom"???????? I take it you're the one flashing the "old school" street sign for "2" or the old "hippy drippy peace sign". I have no clue what it means in today's possy sign language. I will take a wild guess.... "2-Pak is dead" hense the 2 on it's side. :woohoo:
Get us a pic of the cut up harness and someone might bew able to help. ;)

No, no, no, your picture is fine:) But an additional picture/series of pictures of the cut wiring might get you the help you need.

Also put your location in your signature line. Chances are that someone lives close enough to have a look at the mess.
