Just wondering what the pro's and con's would be to addressing the 1800's notorious grounding problem by connecting all grounding points directly to the battery through a length of heavy gauge (8?) copper wire. I remember reading somewhere that Kawasaki does this to avoid grounding problems on some of their bikes. In one of the great write-ups on the grounding fix for the 1800, the author mentioned that the grounding problems arise from corrosion that develops when different metals are placed in an electrical connection. The frame is steel, but the connectors are copper or brass. Of course, there would still be incompatibility between the copper ground wire and any brass connectors, but maybe it would not be as great as the incompatibility between steel and copper.
