I have a 2007 Street Glide. Here is the issues that just started accruing. The bike sits in the garage for about 4 to 5 days. I go to start the bike and start riding. I stop to get gas shut the bike off fill up, Now the bike will not start, No clicking noise or anything when i go to start the bike. I let the bike sit for about 20 Min doing nothing, bike starts right up. I ride another 70 Mile no problem i shut the bike off the same issues accrues.
1) I Replace the battery it's New.
2) I replace both Batteries on the FOB's, when i go to start the bike the security signal is off on the dash.
3) This has been going on for about three weeks.
Also check under the seat near battery is the connection for the security system antenna. No antenna no go. Had similar problem with my 08. Was going over connections and squeezed that one......CLICK . Aha moment. Started right up. Doubtful it's battery. Would have trouble starting after 5 days. Not after running and shutting off for 5 min. Any work done to bike prior to problem cropping up??
I road the bike last night, shut it off and tried to start it right away and for the first time i heard a little clicking noise, it may be just the battery cable to the starter i will check and tighten it tonight. I waited about 15 Min after that and it started right up.
