Got a guy bringing a Harley over to repair the heel kick on his kickstand.
I'm wondering if there are any problems shorting out electronics if I weld it on the bike?
I'll be grounding right at the weld..

The guy bringing the bike over asked the question and I said, hmmm, that IS a good question!
He said Screw it, and said he wouldn't hold me responsible but I like better safe than sorry.
There was a recent post on this topic:

Sounds like it depends on the process, to some extent: if you're not using high frequency then there is less danger, but disconnecting the battery and easily accessible electronics is a good idea.
Fixed!
I disconnected the battery and grounded close to the weld. Went smooth and customer was happy!
Someone had tried to fix it before and I'm guessing they used a torch to heat it because there was a molten metal spill down the kickstand. Ground it all off and made it look new so he was more than happy. PLUS, he wanted some of my cards because he is going on a poker run and his buddies always need something welded... I'm in!! :D
I think my lottery came in last night... My wife works at a hospital and they are majorly short staffed, she was offered $70 an hour if she would work extra shifts. The only catch is, You have to sign up for 8 shifts or more, lol. Hello? I will work 24 hours a day for $70 dollars!!!!! :)
