[QUOTE="Azuqui, post: 1453312, member: 5635"] Hey guys, I finally found out what the problem was. My fuel pump was going out. so it was really hesitant when given it gas. One day it went out all together and I knew it was the fuel pump cause she stopped cycling when you turn the key. So I had the fuel pump replaced. So here is the kicker so to speak. Remember I said that there was this snapping arcing sound when I pressed the starter button..... well I found out what it was.... My positive lead to the battery was loose., but I mean really loose, almost to the point where you could pull the bolt on the battery without turning it. I couldn't f_cking believe it. (I feel like a heel!) anyway, I tighten the positive battery bolt, and walla! She starts like the first day I got her in 2007. No more arcing etc. So I want to thank all of you that chimed in trying to help. Oh, and don't forget to check the battery terminal every once in a while, they can come loose like mine did and create a world of shit. Thanks again, and ride safe! [/QUOTE]
