No Spark
Took my bike out wednesday night and it started rough. Just kept turning over until it finally popped and started, then it ran fine. Wasn't able to ride again til saturday and the bike wouldn't start. I had no spark. Haven't dove into it yet, but figured I'd ask if anyone had this problem before what it turned out to be? Any help / advice would be appreciated.

How do you know you have no spark? Anyway, possible you need some new ignition wires. Also possible your battery is bad and/or associated connections needs to be thoroughly cleaned. Replace plugs maybe. Not likely bad, but check coil output.

It's a 99 Road King, I did just put a fairing with stereo on it, but can't see any way that it would effect the spark. I had the battery on a tender all winter and it cranks the bike over just fine, i removed the plugs and tested and no spark. As far as ignition wires go, would that cause it to quit right away like that, wouldn't it run like **** before it quit comepletely?
