I could be tottaly wrong on this, so take my information lightly, but if I remember correctly, the Lambda signal is actually some sort of oxygen wire? And cannont be soldered back together if broken? There should be something in the archives about it.

The wires attached to the O2 sensor (2 white, 1 black) should not be cut. The wire you did cut must be fixed. You have the shield and the inside core wire(s). Which pin # on the KLR the wire you cut is connected to (this will help identify if the wire is causing the no-start or if there is something else causing the problem)?
If you want the O2 signal, why are you going to the KLR?

Even though, if the wires to the O2 sensor were cut...worse case would be the same as a bad O2...which would still allow you to run.

I think we need to look for something else as well...
