I rode me bike to the office then to the bank. I come out of the bank and it wont start. Itll crank. I cranked it for a good 30 seconds. Then I went WOT to clear the engine in case of a flood condition. Then cranked some more. Nothing. Something is wrong with the spark system (ignition). Has gas and a can smell raw fuel after cranking.

Lets hear the usual culprits. Although I know what to be checking for its good to bounce ideas off other people.

check the fuse. I did a wheelie and came down hard a long time ago, and the same thing happened to me. Just look for the hell of it, you never know. Im sure you checked that already though.

All fixed. Drained the battery trying to start the bike. Then I charged the battery and did the old fashion bump start. Started right up and from what my dad said shot black smoke and flames out the tail pipe. Now it starts just fine with the electric starter. Anyone have any explanations.

you had raw fuel in your cylinders from trying to start the bike with the shitty plugs.. so it burned out when you got it running after you installed the new plugs..your ok..

Just wondering if you were a bike mechanic or something. I have never seen anyone ask a question that you couldnt answer. You are like the 954 dictionary. Its funny as hell. Cool tho.

BOBJOE FOR PRESIDENT!!!!
