    Had a bad battery on my 99 ultra classic so I swiched it with another one from another bike.. Tried to start it and realized the neg and pos were reversed and now it won't turn over .Removed the battery walked right out of the garage in disgust and locked the door. What possible damage could I have done or is it a fuse problem .

    Check all of the fuses. Hopefully they protected everything.

    Thomas Edison? I'am not so sure any more CD.

    Appears Edison received reading from an American Prophet named Edgar Cayce.

    So really who's inventions were they? :eek:
