Wire starts smoking

Ok theground. Wire to the starter starts to smoke when trying to turn it over ,and it turns over .
Greetings:
The starter circuit is a high-amperage affair. You may have noticed the wires are bigger in gauge (10?) than the other scooter circuits. A non-stock, thinner wire replacement will overheat and burn quickly - make sure the wire gauge is stock. If not the wire, make sure the connections are firm - those smaller bullet connectors are barely adequate to support the current flowing through them.
