    Heb je gekeken of al je bougies vonken? en als je nog contactpunten onsteking hebt zou ik ze eens af laten stellen, heeft bij mijn 750 veel verschil uitgemaakt. SUCCES!!!

      Re: Spark plugs

      Since the battery is new and the starter spins the engine over satisfactorily and the sparkplugs are wet with fuel, then
      its not a fuel supply problem, starter or battery problem.
      I would first put a voltmeter on the battery. Note the voltage and while leaving the voltmeter connected, push the starter button and note how much the voltage drops. It could be a low voltage problem. If so, you may need to clean electrical connections. I would check coil grounds and connections closely. I would also remove spark plugs and check them for sparking by grounding them to the engine. My best guess is that somewhere, you are losing voltage and the sparkplugs are not firing hotly enough. I would also check ignition timing as this also can make an engine difficult to start. Of particular note is that the bike starts just fine when push started, but not when the starter is used. The only difference I see between these two instances is electrical current availibility

        Okay Robinjo, I caught about half of that Nederlander post you gave Eric. Now do you want to post it in English so I can see how close I was in my translation?
        Doze.
