    2002 Vmax Electrically Dead

    No horn, no starter no nuthin'. All fuses are good. Battery is not so hot but will take a full charge, that's not the issue. Jiggled key and wiring, still nothing. Happened suddenly, went for a nice long ride on Monday, went to start it Tuesday and it clicked and died completely. Any ideas?

    Is my middle seat dead?

    I knew my middle seat was damaged when I bought the bike but I finally got around to peeling the cover off today. It's pretty much destroyed. I could probably patch it back together or is it worth spending the $$$ on a relatively pricey used one? Later, Doug
