I was cruising down the Interstate...give it a lil gas and it bogs way down....I noticed I was decreasing speed....so I pulled off to the shoulder, pulled the clutch in and my bike died....Then it wont start back up....I can twist the throttle a few time and it might fire up for about 1 second.....I was thinking maybe its the fuel pump, any other ideas?

towing company wated $125 to tow 10 miles, AAA didnt cover my bike since I dont have RV+? So anyway I called up my father in law and we loaded it up in the back of his truck...two people picking up a bike isnt very fun, but a hella of a lot cheaper!

PS: I have a 2000 F4

 

So I got my bike started today...running fine...took about 2 mins to start? mybuddy thinks maybe the ignition coil could be going bad, going to try adn change that, along with new plugs, and replacing the strainer.

 

Yea, could be a rectifier as well if it isnt holdin a charge or anything.

 

Yeah, get RV Plus on your AAA- I paid about $30 more I think over the basic service.
Free tows up to100 miles also.

 

nvm.

 

nah holds a charge fine...just didnt fire, I believe it was getting gas considering I could smell the gas when I got it home and set it in my garage...thats why I was thinking maybe the ignitiopn coil? It has died a few times when sitting at lights, but always started back up
