I was out of town so haven't had any more time to troubleshoot. Probably won't until this weekend. I did find out that if I stand on the right side of the bike and listen very closely to determine what is going on, it fires right up. :-).

I don't think so. Riding home tonight so we will see what happens.

Thanks Panman for the info. I can get the multimeter out for testing first. This morning I noticed something new after it did not start on the first push if the button. I pushed a couple more times and would hear the electrical whirring noise that I hear each time. Same thing we here when...

Great stuff everyone. I am going to go ahead and replace the relay. I will let everyone know if that does the trick. I'm in Jacksonville FL.

Key switch (try wiggling the key in "no start" condition) Has ignition switch recall been done? Ignition switch recall done. I tried wiggling and on/off but this only turns everything off or on. With my issue, everything is on and appears normal, just that the starter does not trigger...

I probably won't get a chance until next week but I will check it out and let you know what I find.

Thanks for the info. By no start I mean no crank. Starter does not click or anything. Then I push the button again and it cranks and starts right up.

07 72k miles. Battery fairly new. I purchased one hoping that was the problem. Shouldn't be a battery issue because once the starter "lights" it turns at normal speed. I can clean button but it seems to me it is working because I hear the fuel rail charge and the warning light goes off each...

The symptoms I am having are very much like the one in this recent thread After turning the key, and hearing the "boot up", when I hit the starter button, I hear the fuel rail charge again but nothing from the starter. All the lights on the dash are normal including warning light. Usually, I...

I am thinking about buying a vintage bike that does not have a title. Has anyone tried to title a bike without a title in FL? Is there a lot of hassle and expense?

And here I was trying to be polite. It's like that old Weather Channel commercial, "Who looks ridiculous now?!"

Thanks for the tip. I will most likely speed the idle up to 1100. The weird thing is that it was fine until yesterday and then happened twice on my ride home from work. Can you really save gas with the idle at 650??? I guess it makes sense but I can't imagine that there would be much...

Hate to admit that I don't know exact. I am going to say right around 900 from the best that I can recall when looking down.

07 FJR1300A, 7K with Barbarian Mod, spring and throttle sync performed at around 3K. Bike has been running well with no issues and I have not made any changes since the mods at 3K. Today (for the first time) as I was coming to a stop at a light, the engine simply died. It started write up...

The 07 does not have an access panel in the nose. Or if it does, it is the most hidden panel I have ever seen. (I took the windshield off before I discovered this). I also had trouble finding the auto retract plug. Here's what I did. Take the right (rider's right) black dash board cover...
