After a couple of Oh Man what do we do nows by his girlfriend who I will say was not a happy camper at this time, I looked down and found a couple of pull tab's off of a old beer can and got an Idea! I took off the rotor button shoved the beer can tab under what was left of the metal tab on the rotor button unwound some electrical tape off the wiring on my bike wrapped it around the button to hold the beer can tab in, bent the tab up so it would make contact slapped the cap back on and the jeep fired up I gave him the other tab for a spare and followed him out to the road and off they went! Let me tell that was one happy girlfriend at that moment!
