Re: Factory Pro shift kit

Sounds like you just need to adjust your clutch: Try the adjustment on the Clutch lever, Tightening the cable will allow your clutch to disengage fully which should help. *** Adjusting the Clutch Rod Adjustment Screw *** This should be checked and set properly before relaying on your lever adjustmen...

Re: Issues: No Spark!!

Re: Issues: No Spark!!

Do you have a Voltmeter? Measure the volts from the wire which plugs into the fuel pump.

also maybe the Fuel Pump Relay: the fuel pump is controlled by the fuel pump relay.

" fuel pump only turns on when running a wire from the battery " :headscratch:

Re: No Shift

Can you sit on the bike, rock it back and forward, pull in the clutch and try to shift with your toe?

*Trying to put it in gear with your hand is difficult sometimes.
