I'm not so sure. It looks melted.
Is the green insulation worn or melted?
An earth wire would only melt if a fault somewhere else meant that it was carrying (much) more load than it was designed for.

Steve, take a look at the first picture. It looks like rubbing. The second picture looks melted. Hard to tell just from a photo.
MIKE550/4:
not sure at all.. green wire has very small parts of black wire round the edge.
will try and get a better pic in daylight tomorrow close up
Trigger:
Was the damaged section up against any metal of the bike mike? . Was all the electrics working before you dismantled the bike.
MIKE550/4:
bike had sat for years, I hooked a battery up and tested what I could lights, indicators, but that's as far as I went.
Bike has not been started for 30 years from what I can gather
Never noticed the rubbing till it was stripped
