Suzuki gs1000L ground frying?
The Problem is that the thing turns over multiple times. However when it finally gets a spark and try's the start it dies. I Try to turn it over again and it fries the battery ground.
I'm cranking it for about 3-5 seconds. The ground was fryer to begin with but i replaced it and tryed it then. The worst thing about this is the ground is getting so hot it burns nearby wires as well. I don't thing there is a hole in them but it all pops out of some tape. I really probably just need to replce the wiring harness all together because I can only check so far on this. Whoever did the wiring did not know what they were doing because every light on the bike has it's own ground.

When you're cranking it over trying to start it, how long are you cranking it for? 10 seconds of continual cranking is a long time. So has it overheated the ground just one time or multiple times? If the ground connection is loose, corroded or frayed, it's going to overheat.

Do yo mean it is melting the negative connection on the battery or frame?
Take the negative lead completely off the bike, clean all contact surfaces thoroughly and reassemble

Sounds like your getting arcing which means you have faulting connections. Clean them really good, put some dielectric grease on the connections.
