i have a 06 road king and am broke down in Salina UT bike just stopped running has power and cranks good but wont fire. any roadside checks i might check? im thinking fuel injectors any sudgestions??

 

where is your fuel filter????



are you getting spark across the plugs? did you pull the wires to check for spark?



do you have tools? can you pull the cam positioning sensor and clean it????

 

whoa- DO NOT crank the motor with the plug wires pulled- this can blow the ignition system.

you can crank the motor with plugs on the wires and the plugs grounded to the motor-

this is an important difference !

--------------------------

when cranking the motor do you smell raw gas from the exhaust pipe ? if so, you probably have fuel.

so spark may be the problem.

Excellent point thank you for clarifying. I should have been more clear!

 

No fuel smell no spark and none of the fuses are blown

 

its mid day here so maybe i just cant see the spark. thanks for the help i think its fuel pump as i smell no fuel at all and i just toped it off, had to coust into the station, lol ride w a trailer is on the way and have an appt w las vegas HD in the am, wish me luck hoping to make it to sturgis by tuesday

 

+1 I'm guessing fuel pump

 

I presume you have pulled the fuel cap to make sure that there isn't a vacuum?

 

Yes i just filled the bike up, The tank is full . im back in vegas tonight so we will see tomorrow thanks everyone.

 

Good Luck! You don't seem too bummed out! I've found that a little trouble along the way creates memories that stick with ya! I remember trips where I got wet or cold a lot better than the perfect trips with nothing eventful happening. Keep the good attitude and enjoy the trip. Ride safe!
