I saw a bike destroy every box installed due to a missing engine/frame ground.

That's a strange one.

You'd think there would be enough of a ground path through the engine mounts.
Current for the starter motor has to travel somehow...

Powdercoated frame?

freshly painted.

No other cause was ever found.

It ate 4 of them before we gave up.

But with the engine-frame ground wire installed/attached, all was good?

The bike was disassembled.
