    09 xb12 SS. Wont start

    Hey guys i run in to some trouble with my bik it won’t start, and if it starts it runs like crap I’ve tried everything I know and can to fix it but it doesn’t help. It back fires through the inlet both pops and fire it doesn’t take the gas very well at all. I just put in new inlet seals spark plugs wires I’ve fix ore changed every ground wire on the bike to no help. It seams like if I test the coil with emcdroid it fires a spark on both sides no problem. But if I use the start button no spark come on the plugs ore only some times any ideas to help

    With no information to go on, all we can do is guess, just like you're doing. We could get lucky?

    Sounds like you are saying you test for spark at the plug wires and have it, but when they are reconnected it coughs and sputters while cranking (but won't start). Yes?

    Did it run well before you changed the intake seals?

    Do the free and easy stuff first.
    1) Get the service manual free .pdf download. It will have all the test procedures in it.
    2) Perform a spark plug self cleaning procedure.
    3) Remove the airbag bottom plate and re-check your work.
    4) Make sure there is actually good fuel in it






    *As a total guess,I think the spark plugs are fouled.
