Sleeping while it smokes!!!

I was watching tv last night and done what most guys do fall a sleep. I woke up to MMA on tv watched a fight got to thinking about my chop. Then some sorta weird feeling came over me like it was stolen or something like that. I jumped up went an got the door opener it started to open. I thought WTF as smoke rolled out the garage. I ran out and start pulling wires of the bike. Its a real nice early 70's long bike I just finished re doing at last year. Smoke was rolling off the coil, voltage reg, out the points cover and the wires. I WAS BEING A CHEAP FUCKER AND BOUGHT A CHEAP EBAY WAR BIRD LIGHT. I dont wanna spend $3-500 on a tail light I can get one for $45. Well thats what shorted out and melted. So I guess the moral of the story is buy the good parts not the cheap over seas shit. Old bike dont like cheap shit their like a classy lady. You give them fine wine if you want that a$$.....
