okay this is my first post on this site.
recently i traded my friend a xbox360 for his 81 honda cr125. i dont know much about dirtbikes so i thought i would come to you guys.
first thing i did was try to hook the wire up to the spark plug. well the spark plug is the wrong one. so then i was looking around and noticed that on the end of the spark plug wire, (i know that has a name it just slipped my mind. haa) where it makes a 90* angle, that whole part is like ripped of from the rest of the wire. so i guess that means i need a new one.?
what is a good website to find replacement parts like this?
thanks!

Any cycle shop will have one. It will screw on your wire. You may need to unscrew the small metal cap on the end of the spark plug for the cap to fit the plug correctly. Ask the guy at the counter when you buy the new spark plug wire cap.

so your saying the end of the spark plug screws off? huh? never heard of that?

Yep. When you buy a spark plug, the end has a removable cylinder on it. For cars, you leave it on. For a lot of dirt bikes, you remove it and get better grip by the spark plug cap. Of course, you have to have the type of spark plug cap that is supposed to go on the plug without the cylinder.

you can buy either solid ends or removable ends. Just be sure to
run the plug for the bike, too hot a plug will detonate and hole your
piston, that I will guarantee.
