Is it possible your starter locked up? I had a problem with my starter
which appears to have been a corroded wire connecting to it. Wire
actually acted like a resistor and wouldn't let the juice go to the
starter. Check that your battery wires and connections to the starter
are clean and free of corrosion. If it was definitely a battery
discharge problem, not sure.

| Hi every one, well as I live in Fl we had some nice weather today 68 degrees a little bit to windy though, went to the post office on my loop and got stranded. Figures, I have riden the bike all over town the past 2 weeks and got confident enough not to need the cell phone, well needed the phone. I shut the bike off to go into the PO couldn't get the stamps outa the machine (didn't like the new $10 bill) came out and the bike wouldn't crank. Bummed a ride home as the wife wouldn't ansew the damn phone. Went bat to get the bike applied direct battery voltage to each side of the coil and she fired up again, and has cranked every time since I got her home. Anybody got any idea on what needs to be replaced coil or condenser has my vote probably ought to break down and tune her up. Well gotta run, Rick V700 Fl |
