Hello folks

Had my buell on trickle charger over the winter and now looking to get on the road for the summer. Have been starting the bike every few weeks without problem. Today went to start it and it cranked but wouldn't fire. Put some more fuel in it just in case although the fuel warning light wasn't on. Still no good. Have made several attempts but still only cranking. I have no warning lights on, all fuses are ok and no mods otherthan a remus can.
Any help would really be appreciated.
Best regards
Rob (Newbie)
 
+1 ... just my 2cents ...

For reference, if you start these bikes repeatedly (especially when cold) and not allow them to either warm up to operating temp or run long enough for the ECM to cut out the cold start enrichment you'll most certainly foul plugs over a short period of starts/stops ... It's also good to actually let them do more than idle (a short ride if possible ... which might not always be the case but just as a suggestion) as excessive idling can cause carbon to build up on the plug electrode even up to temp...
 
Check that your fuses are correctly installed. One time I accidentaly put my ecm fuse in the spare slot and it wouldn't fire. A quick switch up and it fired right up
