Hi guys, it's been awhile since I've posted. I hope everyone is doing well under our current circumstances.
So, I did something stupid today. I tried to start my GT for the first time in quite awhile, over a year I'd say. Anyway, the battery wasn't strong enough to turn the engine over. I decided to try jump starting it with my car. Unfortunately, I connected the jumper cables incorrectly and crossed the polarity between the bike and the car. Now the bike is totally dead, acting like there is no battery installed. I obviously fried something electrical, but there is no visible damage. I would appreciate any input on where to look or how to troubleshoot.
