Hot Wiring a 98 900RR? HELP!! - General Sportbike Discussion

Jay Carnes · 03-20-2003, 08:09 AM

My bike has a smashed ignition. Some cock bag tried to steal & it just F'd it up. The entire ignition is gone, and its unpluged from right under the fuse panel. Its thursday & I wanna ride this weekend (wont have a new one till next week). There are 4 Prongs on the plug that the ignition would plug into. I can get some female connectors to connect to it, but I need to know what wires to connect to each other to fire it up.

I connected an ignition off a 95 RR, but it only had 3 Prongs on the harness - instead of 4. It would turn the bike on - let me turn it over - but it would NOT catch as if it has no spark. What i strongly believe is that the other prong gives power to the coils or what not. PLEASE someone drop me a line as if that may be it - or if the 95 will indeed work & I have no spark because of a different problem.

Jay i think you should burn it!!!... not just kiding, hey let me know if you still need help? i have a service book for 98 and 99 rr!:devil

Just be thankful that that asshole didn't get the whole bike!
I'm pretty sure you'll have to use a 4 pronger like the one that's on it...or use a jumper.
