I'm in Ventura California. the red kill switch was smashed off and the terminals exposed. So i just used some copper wire to cross the ON terminals....then pushed the start botton as usual. Of course once it started i would take the copper wire off - circuit open but still running?. I don't know if this could have fried anything. I think not, but not sure. i rode like this for 500 miles and started and stopped her in this manner a dozen or more times. My feeling is it is not related to it not starting, but i have been wrong before.
Anyway, i noticed her *suddenly* not running very well - lots of vibration when excelerating - like the timing was off. then she just wouldn't start. Turned over fine - just wouldn't fire. Anyway any ideas would be appreciated. i will be taking it apart tonight or tomorrow and checking for spark and testing different parts. DArn it i forgot my multitester!!! I have three of them....guess now i have 4.
Anyone know any good shops in Ventura California. I went to So-Cal motor sports to get it worked on and they were too busy. All i wanted was new tires mounted and a couple of spare parts. I haven't heard any good things about these guys. Impressive shop, but they just seemed so disorganized and unprofessional. Some one told me Howdy's shop is good.
Once i dig in to the problem i'm sure i'll get it figured, but any help and direction would be appreciated.
Regards
Troy
