2002 Road King not starting
Have a 2002 EFI Road King that was parked over 8 months. Changed oil, oil filter, tranny fluid, flushed and replaced gas, replaced leaky fuel line, and bought a new battery. Engine turns over but does not start. Replaced plugs and added techron injector cleaner but still does not start. Any other suggestions since I have done pretty much all I know what to do.

Have you checked the off/run switch?
If the fuel wasn't treated I guess it might be possible that the injectors could be clogged.
Do you have any type of security system that might be causing it to not start?

are you sure the oil level is correct, do you have oil pressure at the gauge?
you are pumping air out the mufflers? ( yes/no) these questions related to valves opening and closing in time...lifters lifting...
does the air (if any)it smell like gas?
did you just do the fuel line replacement or did you do that last year? if so was the bike able tp run after that?
do you hear the fuel pump working in the tank, can you look in and see fuel moving in the tank, like from a bad line?

Did you remove the fuel tank to flush/replace the gas? If so, did you plug in all the electrical connectors? (Probably you did, but doesn't hurt to ask . . .) You might also consider disconnecting and reconnecting the quick-connect fuel line at the bottom of the tank. Sometimes the check valve sticks in those and will not permit any fuel flow. I've had that happen just from sitting over the winter in my climate-controlled garage (have since replaced the check valve and fuel line to the throttle body for a permanent fix).
