Hi there hello to everyone.
I just put my electra on the road after buying it and storing it over the winter, rode it home great. Now won't start !!
Can't hear the fuel pump, put new battery on , changed clutch switch, still no go !!!!!
Side stand cut out works though. Have noticed fuel light and Mill light are not coming on.
Any ideas why it won't start !!!, ??????
Cheers

Have you checked the cut out switch is not on on the handle bar ?

I agree with Reds .Check the plug on the left hand side of the handlebar.

Does the clutch lever sit fully out when not in use ensuring the switch nib is pushed fully home into the new switch unit?
I've picked up a minor niggle on mine where the bike wont start in neutral if the clutch lever is pulled in.

Just been down to look over the bike and there's no stark at the plug either
Getting stuck for ideas now
