I held the iron on it for maybe 3-4 seconds, hit it with the the rosin core wire and it just flowed in there REAL NICE LIKE. Life is easier now.
    I don't get the logic of using two different solder recipes on the same wire. You use a lead-free with some (plumbing?) flux, then add the lead & rosin core?? WTF?

      It worked.
      "The Hooligan" XJ1100, Virago Gauge Pods, Screaming Eagle Mufflers, K&N Filter, hand made rear fender, side covers, and solo seat, round bar conversion, small headlight, tail light, and cat eye turn signals, chip fuses, rewired the right way.
