    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Sounds like a dead batter or a loose connection.

+1 always start with a good battery. A load test will tell you (autozone does this). I had a battery that showed good at rest, but when a load was applied dropped to 2V. No wonder bike wouldn't start
 
Hi,

Have a look at the electrical section on my little website. There may be something there that will help.

Make sure your batter cables are clean and well connected, make sure the solenoid is properly grounded, etc. In other words, check and clean all of your electrical connections, repair or replace as necessary. It could be something really simple, but all of the connectors should be cleaned anyway.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
