I've pushed about a mile from home.

I had a faulty petcock and was running Suzi in prime so I just ran out....
Didn't look into the tank until I had drained the battery

Earned some good experience points on that adventure.

Weather was early Spring so temp was mild but still in full gear.

No,.. not yet...  Haven't had time to check it out...
... and it's still so darn hot....
Logic is telling me it's the kickstand switch... I'll check that first...
I've dealt with 6 of these bikes,...  I've had three problems related to vacuum petcock, and two to the clutch switch cut-out, ... and now this...
Other than squeaks and rattle repairs (speedo, headlight, belt, front pulley nut), and fuel system clogs, from bikes sitting too long,... 100% of mechanical failures have been related to "safety" equipment...

I'm going to do some bypassing.... breakdowns do not equal safe... ...

I had to push mine up a steep grade, in cool weather, and I thought I was going to have a stroke.  Odd how heavy that bike can get; can't imagine pushing a V-twin.
