    Jason, they are available from Greer and other dealers. Look in one of the dealer catalogs and you should be able to find a picture. May also see in original literature. They are rubber and slide over the end of the wire. Have been around for years. Hard plastic ends just don't look right. Marty

    Bike does have the spark guard. Any chance of getting a pic of or link to a pic of what a rajah end looks like? I don't think I'm familiar with those unless I've seen them and didn't know what they were called.

    I thought getting shocked might be a con of open terminals......but my wife would agree its probably good for me.

    Thanks for the replies

No intentions of having a judged bike but do like to use original appearing parts when possible so am considering the open terminal wires unless someone indicates there is a drawback to using them.

    Thanks in advance for any input provided.
