Note to self, do not use an angle grinder, that causes sparks, next to a 110Amp leisure battery that is on charge.
Twas a lucky escape, I just got a few splashed to the side of the face and forearms. Easily washed off.
The neighbours heard the explosion, and one came to see if I was ok, expecting the worst.

Question....... the honda only had a temperature warning light originally so i am fitting a temperature gauge which came with a sensor, question is would the original sensor fitted to the bike work on a gauge????? it looks to me to be exactly the same type of sensor :hide:
