Ignition Issue
occassionally my starter button on RH handlebar sdoes not work. Requires me to turn ignition and off a number of times b4 it will start.
I did have my bike flashed for a RF amp.
Anyone else having this issue?

Yup ,happens to mine if it sits for a week or so...not often during riding season. I usually have to turn it to a cerain spot for it to work. Its on the list of winter maintenance items to be replaced.

Thanks for responding.
The bike does sit for a week sometimes and I will see if there is a relationship to this.
I also lost the heated grips on my bike after the flash so that is why I went in the direction. Could be a coincidence.

Your bike seems to have an electrical problem, so solve it, or find a man who can.

Wow!! I do not believe I used the word "solution". However, what I posted is definitely a damn good workaround should a starter button/switch fail while out on the road. Opinions are like asses and elbows.....everyone has them.
