    Bike won't fire

    My Husbands VMAX was running great last night, the bike sat in the garage overnight and this morning it won't fire. He has electric and we have checked all the plugs and wires. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Will it turn over normal? Got gas? Fuel petcock? Is there a vacuum line connected to the petcock that might have come loose?

    There are only 3 things that make fire in a motor - air, fuel, and spark. One of the three is out of whack, so you don't have many places to look. If you're 100% sure you have spark, check the gas. I doubt your airbox is the issue.
