Well I unplug the relay and it sounded like it wanted to fire but still nothing. Still no spark. Where to now?

If I removed the relay should the bike start or does it need a working relay to start?

Ok side stand rely, I have continuity to the black and black/white wires all the time. I have continuity to the blu/yel and red/wht wires all the time also. I tried this with the key on/off side stand up and down with no difference. I could hear a little click when I put the stand up and the...

Ok no luck with the jump start. I am not getting any spark to any of the plugs. I do have power to the coils. I am not sure which relay is the kick stand relay to unplug it and see if that corrects the problem.

I pulled a spark plug and its not firing at all. The bike will not start so I am thinking im not firing at all. Been dealing with this for awhile. I did get to start once and took it out for a ride, ran bad for a while but then cleared up and was running good. Shut it off a few times and it...

Im not getting any spark, where should I start looking? I have done the crimp fix. How do I test things to find my problem?

Ok pulled the line just before the carbs and its getting fuel. After that I pulled a spark plug and there is no spark at all. I grounded the plug to the bike frame and cranked it for a while but never a spark. What do I look at now? And how do I test things?:ummm:

I cant get the bike to start at all. The tank seems clean, I rode the bike 1000 miles stopping only for fuel with no problems. After that I had a starting issue while bike was hot then it started up a little later fine and I rode it home. Messing with it for a while. Didn't seem to be firing at...

When I turn my ignition on I hear the fuel pump but dont see any fuel in the filter. I might get a little bit but not even enough to fill the filter up half way. The pump should fill the filter up right? Should it hold a certain presure?

Where can I find the displaced diaphram link? I entered it in the search but only one return that did not help any. Thanks

Sorry but I could not find a link for the displaced diaphram using the search on here. Feel like a dummy and a pain in the rear. :ummm: I did ahve the air box off also. Live and learn.

Took filter off and blew it out for now. After putting it back on I started it and same thing. there is never very much fuel in the filter is that normal? I can hear the fuel pump running but dont see but a little fuel in the filter, maybe the bottom 1/4 of the filter has fuel in it.

I got fire. Not sure what happened or why but she fired up. Running like crap. Cant get it to rev at all. It will idle ok but when I go to gas on it it falls on its face (out of gear). I can play with the choke and get it to rev some. Getting strong smell of exhaust and some smoke. Im going to...

Does anyone know if that relay is working with the info I posted? Im not getting any fire to the plugs. What else should I look at?

Ok pulled a plug wire and no spark. I have the left scoop off and see the small relay, I think. With the key in the off position I get no wires with any power to them. With the key in on position I get full power to the red/white, the grey and the blue wires. The red/blue striped wire shows .53...

Yeah it cranks over great, brand new battery and I even had a battery charger on it helping out when I was trying numerous times to get it started. I will see about the switches today. I HOPE it fires up. I need a good long ride.

well after trying to start it numerous times I could smell gas and I sprayed starting fluid righ into the carbs before. I guess I can tests the switches with a meter before and after the switch.

ok i will get a bigger better soldering iron. The one I used was a piece of junk

First started with a hot start problem. I rode it about 60 miles shut it off and returned about an hour later to leave but would not start. Tried starting fluid in the carbs but no help. Went back about 10 hours later and it fired right up. Rode it home 60 miles and shut it off. Went back out in...
