[QUOTE="CarlHungness, post: 173410, member: 2517"] It may have been the problem....last year. Couldn't start the bike..finally did so, it sat for months. I dis- connected the kill switch, just on intuition...and have been trying to start it ever since with it dis-connected. BUT, when I checked the kill switch just for fun this week, once I got the bike running I thought I'd re-connect the wires..and as soon as I touched them the bike died..WHAT?? I was not pushing the button..it was three feet away. The wires should just go together...So now I figure the kill switch (Amal Button) is bad, tested it and it has continuity , but also has cont when button pressed! So my theory is: Last year the kill switch was going duff, hard to start the bike, may have 'fed' electrics back into the mag and made a mess...but, I have had the bike running without the kill switch three times, and can't re-start each time..get so frustrated I leave until the next day. Maybe the B-TH is putting out spark, but maybe not strong enough to run the machine...This scenario is driving me mental, so trying to keep a good attitude. [/QUOTE]
