Hello all newbie here 

 

Got my self a mutt mastiff 125cc...and I changed the rear indicators the other day as the factory ones keep burning out...so anyway I followed the old wire and put the correct leads in the correct sockets everything was fine ...goes to put seat and idicators together again via a bolt IVA side and there is sparks coming from the bolt as I turn it ....what could this be ?...it's in the garage now but I am wondering if anyone has an idea what could cause it or have they had it happend ..the bike still started up and the indicators worked fine for about 20 mins

Regarding your title, Earth was great until humans ruined it... 🙄

 

If sparks are coming out that means a short circuit. Somewhere in the wiring there is a contact between a live wire and the bike's frame.
