Re: whats this wire

sounds like your RF filter for the radio, there is one mounted on the back of each head.

Serious, its an rf filter for radio to cancel ignition interference. there is one mounted at the rear of each head.

Re: whats this wire

Yup that's what my first thought is too. They are on the back of the heads, and a real PITA to get plugged back in sometimes.
