OK, so my 749s won't start.
-fuel not priming when you turn the key on.
Woke up saturday morning to go riding.
Bike started right up first time out.
while warming up the bike, I put on helmet and gloves. Right when I was about to saddle up the bike died. It was like the bike was in need of gas right when it died out. Tried restarting and just cranks over but no start. This happened to me a couple weeks back and was able to start it up a couple of tries later. I thought it was the battery then so this time i went out and bought a new one. Bike started after i put on the battery.
I decided to take it for a ride. So off I went to Angeles Crest to meet up with some friends at Nukes. When it was time to go, The bike started right up. about a a hundred yards the bikes had no throttle response and motor died out. We decided to push it back to Nukes and tried fixing it. Couple of good folks helped out a lot. Notice that the fuel wasn't priming when you turn the ignition to ON. No familiar sound of that whirring noise that indicates that the fuel pump primed it out. after 2.5 hours of messing around with it with the battery off the bike started to prime up and started. Off i went home.
Sunday I started to think it was the Fuel pump relay as this was a common for the 916/96/98 series from what i was told. I got a new one and installed it.Started her up and everything was ok. Tried turning on and off the igniton just to see if the fuel pump primes. While the bike was warming up the bike died again and won't start. again no "whirring" sound when you turn the key to ON position. I NEED HELP BAD. any other ideas what I could do?
Changed after problems started to happen
-New Battery
-Fuel pump relay
Weird
-after a day or two, the fuel primes when you turn the key on
-no throttle response and dies out
-fuel not priming when you turn the key on.
