"I was going through this FXR for a friend and heard some noises coming from the inner primary after I started the bike. Found a misplaced spring, which is on the wrong side of the jackshaft, along with a Battery Tender mount that had both terminals bolted to the positive terminal. Signs of some funny business going on with this one!"
