Welding on a Frame

Is it wise to disconnect any electrics before carrying out any welding.
I've only welded bikes with batteries before where disconnecting the battery earth lead was enough. Now I've got no battery I'm a bit puzzled :?
Thanks

I'm not sure to be totally honest, but unplugging the CDi sure wouldent hurt.
I think It would be fine as long as it dident short. But I'd hang on to see
what someone else reckons.

ed if it was me i'd disconnect the cdi, reg rec and the main earthing point (underneath the tank on a mk2,unsure about the position for the mk3) just to be sure :!:
