06/02/08 at 19:59:46

Well, I did my plug/cap replacement today as well as rejetting the cabs with lancers jets. Put it all back together and the battery died. Before the battery died i tried starting it while in 1st gear with pushing in the clutch and it wanted to move on me it tried to drive any ideas what that might be before i try stating it again? thanks for any help you can give

Details????

By Plug/cap do you meant the one inside the head cover?

If the bike moved when you hit the starter, then the clutch cable is out of adjustment or some other clutch issue. The interlock switch is at the clutch lever, and on a normally adjusted bike, the interlock will not let the starter buttom do anything if the lever is not in far enugh to make contact with the switch. But if it's out of adjustment.... you might make contact with the switch but still have the clutch slighly engaged.

Question, with the bike off, and bike in gear, and clutch lever pulled in, can you roll the bike?

Engineers design things, Technicians make them work.

I put up another post about that maybe you can help me with that.
