That makes me think your battery is toast. It may show 12 volts when disconnected but once you put any draw on it, it will dive. Did you do a multimeter check yet like I suggested earlier?

Good news, thnx for the info, it might help somebody else.

Probably not, he has an expired membership. You would be much better off with a Carbtune.com.

Blessed Christmas to you and yours, and may 2022 find you looking up rather than looking down.

Using a multimeter check the clamps on the battery, they should show 12.6v. If not then check at the battery posts, there should be 12.6v, if not then replace or charge the battery. If you have less than 12.2v your battery is dead and needs to be charged. If it all looks good so far, next test the fuse box leaving the black lead on the negative battery post and using the red lead to test the power going to the fuse box. Also check the main fuse located in front of the battery. Check the cutoff switch on the right handle bar.

Hoping that you all can and will take a little bit of time to celebrate the birth of the One who started this all years ago. May you find His peace in your hearts and His love surrounding you. As we look forward to a new year may we all search for the truth, help those in need, comfort those who mourn and sorrow, and rejoice in the blessings that have been given us to share.

Yep!!! Don't push it or all that new stuff will be your pain in the butt.

Lookin pretty niffty.

Yaaaaahhhhh,,, you just didn't know how to spell it in English,,,,,, let alone Dutch. No matter, I'll be there when you need help,, as always.

Best with a ham hock, skip the onions (I love onions) add some VPH (Maggi),, called Stamppot.

I'm gonna get me a tree!!! Where did you say you live??

Looking real good!!

Now I seen it! Thing of beauty,,,, way tooo clean and shiny to ride!!😉

Hoping you get an answer, if not tell us more and we'll see if we can help. Or you could bring it to Southern Ontario for a complete health check-up.

Bummer, I don't have an apple, all I got is oranges and a banana. Guess I have to go food shopping.

Got the music,, so now how about the vid?

If you are going to shine up the aluminum then you will probably get black hands. I did mine back in 2014 and so far so good, and if it does go bad,,, well 10 minutes work and all is good again.

A Covid Christmas 'Twas the night before Christmas, Covid was here, So we all had to stay extra cautious this year. Our masks were all hung by the chimney with care In case Santa forgot his and needed a spare. With Covid, we couldn't leave cookies or cake So we left Santa hand sanitizer to take. The children were sleeping, the brave little tots The ones over 5 had just had their first shots, And mom in her kerchief and me in my cap Had just settled in for a long winter's nap. But we tossed and we turned all night in our beds As visions of variants danced in our heads. Gamma and Delta and now Omicron These Covid mutations that go on and on I thought to myself, "If this doesn't get better, I'll soon be familiar with every Greek letter". Then just as I started to drift off and doze A clatter of noise from the front lawn arose. I leapt from my bed and ran straight down the stair I opened the door, and an old gent stood there. His N 95 made him look pretty weird But I knew who he was by his red suit and beard. I kept six feet away but blurted out quick " What are you doing here, jolly Saint Nick?" Then I said, "Where's your presents, your reindeer and sleigh ? Don't you know that tomorrow will be Christmas Day? ". And Santa stood there looking sad in the snow As he started to tell me a long tale of woe. He said he'd been stuck at the North Pole alone All his white collar elves had been working from home, And most of the others said "Santa, don't hire us! We can live off the CERB now, thanks to the virus". Those left in the toyshop had little to do. With supply chain disruptions, they could make nothing new. And as for the reindeer, they'd all gone away. None of them left to pull on his sleigh. He said Dasher and Dancer were in quarantine, Prancer and Vixen refused the vaccine, Comet and Cupid were in ICU, So were Donner and Blitzen, they may not pull through. And Rudolph's career can't be resurrected. With his shiny red nose, they all think he's infected. Even with his old sleigh, Santa couldn't go far. Every border to cross needs a new PCR. Santa sighed as he told me how nice it would be If children could once again sit on his knee. He couldn't care less if they're naughty or nice But they'd have to show proof that they'd had their shot twice. But then the old twinkle returned to his eyes. And he said that he'd brought me a Christmas surprise. When I unwrapped the box and opened it wide, Starlight and rainbows streamed out from inside. Some letters whirled round and flew up to the sky And they spelled out a word that was 40 feet high. There first was an H, then an O, then a P, Then I saw it spelled HOPE when it added the E. "Christmas magic" said Santa as he smiled through his beard. Then suddenly all of the reindeer appeared. He jumped into his sleigh and he waved me good-bye, Then he soared o'er the rooftops and into the sky. I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight "Get your vaccines my friends, Merry Christmas, good-night". Then I went back to bed and a sweet Christmas dream Of a world when we'd finished with Covid 19. --Joseph David

Didn't you just clean that garage?

Check the high tension wire ends, unscrew the ends and cut back the wire to expose a new cut. Also check the resistors in the wire ends, take them apart carefully (small parts involved) and clean them.

Guess we will need more info, all diagnostic. Battery voltage at present. Condition of air filter, or is there one there. Check the spark on all four of the plugs. Which plugs were installed. Does it backfire through the carbs or exhaust. Does it spin over normally, or does it hesitate. Do you hear the fuel pump clicking when you first turn on the ignition after a 5 minute sit. Will it run if you spray some carb cleaner or brake clean into the carbs. How old is the gas in the tank.

It may just need to be snugged up. It will take an allan wrench to do that. The pipe is a pressed fit with a gasket and flange. I would back off the nuts (allan head) and retighten for starters,,, that's if the sound seems to be coming from that area. It could be that somebody had that off and didn't bring both sides up equal.

Just wondering how things are for our family in Kentucky and wondering if the news we hear is correct. Certainly don't look good from what we hear, praying for you all.

And if you really get stuck and your fellow countrymen fail in providing the assistance you need, we the Canuckians will just jump in there to bail you all out, trust us, we've done it before,,,,, 'member when we burnt the out-house,,,, uhhhh White'ouse? We did that didn't we??
