No haven't done anything to the bike. It has done this off and on for a bit. Never left me stuck anywhere. Knock on wood. After turning the bike off or cycling the on off switch a few times the pump primes and bike fires right up. I'll up date when I get into it.

Sounds to me like the ignition switch in the dash.

sure do. But wouldn't that disable everything. You no now thinking about it. I'll replace the battery and try that. Lights were blinking in the normal fashion but did think they were blinking when they shouldn't. Ima try the key without the fob and see if I can recreate the situation.

Nope tried to start bike without fob and pump primed like normal. Just wouldn't start . It's so hit or miss that's what bothers me. It might happen maybe 1 out of 20 flicks of the on/off switch where it doesn't prime. Just last night really didn't want to prime. Took about ten minutes to finally get it to go. Seems to be getting worse.

You need a new switch.

I have a 07 superglide that does the same thing. It seems to be getting worst. when you guys are talking about the switch, do you mean the kill switch or the key in the neck.

Just a thought.

Thats what I was going to suggest.
