Hay everyone I really have gone throw the mill on this one. I ride a 1986 sportster, well it was I just put a 2000 sportster motor in last nite. But Can't get her to do any thing. I have been reading all day and I don't even know if I am going in the right direction. I think that I have to get a new speedo that is electronic so talk to the ecm?

You sure that has an ECM?
Pretty sure that both were a carbed machine.
Start at the battery, if in fact you are chasing an electrical(?) issue.

Welcome to the forum. Some more specific details about your engine swap would probably get some more responses. You're not getting any spark?
