Default Out for a sunny drive…it got hot!

Can this be repaired? Do I really want this repaired?

Out for a topless ride, the dash lit up like Christmas and she went dead. I pulled over and smelled wires burning. Opened the hood and saw flames. I don’t know what happened, but I’m hopeful this isn’t a total loss. Too few of these are left in my opinion!

Sorry to see your misfortune. Good luck with the diagnosis and I hope it doesn't prove fatal.

One of our tireless mods will doubtless move across to the X150 forum.

Pretty much anything can be repaired. Pretty much...
If the insurance totals it out and you don't wanna deal, I would be interested...!

And I don't know why, lolI've turned craZy...
