I have a 02 VTX 1800C that I just recently custom painted. I put it all back together, and it wont start. It's getting gas...(can hear the pump when you turn on the key) and its turning over it just wont start. Anyone with any kind of sugesstions please help!! Thanks...New Paint and No Ride in Florida

Check your grounds on the frame, battery connections (clean and snug contats) make sure all your wiring is still hooked up properly and check the fuses as well. That's where I'd start. Also, take a look at your ECM wires and make sure none are broken/loose or frayed since they are very small and quite delicate.

All the vacuum lines hooked back up where they belong? Fuel lines hooked up properly and not kinked? Coil wires where they belong and seated snugly?

Hope this helps.

What did you remove?

Are you starting it with you on it, stand up, in gear, and the kill switch off?
