No Start after winter
I just found I have no spark on my 94 Aspencade 1500 with 34K. It sat over the winter, starting several times and I rode once this spring. It has sat maybe a month? I assume something has a connection problem. Are these known for any common issues like this?

I'd start at the kill switch.A common loose connection.Theres also mention of a relay.Main relay???Easy to swap with a headlight relay to test.

Re: No Start after winter
The relay Virgil referred to is the #6 relay (ignition cruise relay). Also you might check the #11 fuse (ignition start cruise).

Re: No Start after winter
I rechecked spark at night and did see it. I must have flooded it somehow. It runs fine now.
Glad you got it sorted out.
