Can't get any fire...

[techdude2013]

My bike was running 2 days ago and it seemed to be running fine. Now today it turns over like a champ but isn't getting any fire... any suggestions or tips that might get my baby up and running again?

Try turning your key on & off a few times,than see if it starts.Mine used to do this once in a while,turn the key on & off a couple of times,start every time.

I suggest you download the service manual and check the troubleshooting section, pages 7.1 through 7.7.

With the fire triangle in mind (ignition+fuel+oxygen), if it has no fire, it is most likely an electric or a fuel issue, air filters don't tend to clog overnight.

Let's hope it is something really simple, like: um, oops, ran out of fuel...

Oh and by the way: Welcome to the forum ! :rawk:

You mean it hasn't run since you put the new plug in?
Does it give a spark? Is the spark gap right (your thumb nail which is about 0.6 mm should just barely fit) ?

Spark plug is good.
