    So took my bike to one of my friend's mechanic who supposedly knows all things Harley to see if he could get my bike started.

    No go. Mind you the bike has only sat in the garage. I changed the turn signals out and everything was working fine came back a month later it won't start. So I'm a day away from going to the dealer and having them fix it and gouge my pockets at the same time.

    Any suggestions?

    Have u done the simple stuff like check battery voltage, try to jump start it.. I mean I can lend a hand to see if its simple stuff so you dont need to take it to a shop.. I have a factory manual laying around as well. Shouldnt be too hard hopefully.

    EVLXB i believe is a Marylander, sounded to me like he's in need of more moolah and wants to get rid of his Buell, maybe you can ask him if he's interested in some side work?
