Well, the problem has gotten worse, but that may be a good thing as far as troubleshooting goes.

After getting home yesterday I took the battery to BatteriesPlus and had them load test it. Guy that did the test said the battery is good and that it should last one, if not two more seasons. Got home and tried to start the bike, just to see what it would do and how it would run. Fired right up, ran good for about 10-15 seconds and died. Tried to restart it and nothing; just crank, crank, crank........

Rechecked the fuel line and carb and put in new plugs and tried to start it again. And again, nothing..... Just crank, crank, crank.....

Pulled the plugs one at a time, put the cap back on, touched the plug to ground and hit the starter; nothing....No fire from any of the plugs.....

So unless all four boots are bad or all four wires are bad or both coils are bad (what are the odds????), I've either got a bad pickup coil or a bad ignitor unit. So that's where I'm at. Haven't had a chance to ohm anything out yet.

Now a question; If it is the ignitor unit that's bad, is this what the Speedstar ignition module and the Dyna 3000 replaces??? If so, is it worth going with either of these over the OEM???? At this point, I'd be happy with a used OEM ignitor (if that's the problem) just to get me back on the road...... So if anyone's got a used laying around I might like to hear from you depending on what I find out.
