I know the ground wire is important, but my question really is can there be any damage by not having it connected for some time.
Here's the story:
I took my bike in for a warranty issue on the Cylinder Head Cover Gasket (all the 07 zx6r's has this problem). I got it back and everything seemed fine.
Last weekend I decided to check the valve clearances (12k service) and while I noticed that the ground wire was not bolted onto the Cylinder Head Cover :wow It was just hovering over where it was supposed to be bolted.
It's possible that it was left out by the shop that did the warranty work, or it could have rattled out. I'm not trying to blame anyone for it, but I do want to know if I should expect any long term effects from the ground cable being disconnected for about 10k miles.
Thanks in advance,
-Josh
