Had some trouble with my Vulcan today. I will try to paint the picture. Got a new battery last year. Have had it on the tender a couple of times this winter, but it had not been on one for a couple of weeks. Yesterday it started with the choke on. I rode about 20 minutes and parked it. Started...

Bought a project bike for cheap, was having weak spark problems I find the ignitor box melted an crispy. Replaced it with new now I have no spark??

Hey guys, I've recently come across some electrical issues with my '03 Vulcan and was hoping to get some advice. Long story short, I had ridden my bike around during the day and had some issues starting it. I brought it into my garage to fix a coolant leak and when I went to ride it that night...

My 2002 vn750 was having problems starting, it began about 10 months ago, it would do nothing when I pressed the start button but the dashboard lights came on, it would start after wiggling the handlebar a little but it was getting worse each time. At first I thought it was the switch because...

I bought my bike in october nearly inspection ready, it had a broken left blinker (front and back) but i put 2 wires together and it works.. The only problem is its in reverse. Instead of blinking on and off, they blink off and on, and stay on by default. Where should i look on the bile to fix this?

Hi all! I'm new here, and in mid-September I bought a 2002 VN750 with 6300 miles on it. Vance and Haines exhaust is the only mod. I'm the third owner. I bought the bike from a pastor (a friend of an acquaintance who I can reasonably trust), and this is what I know about the bike's history: It...

Gents, Here's the issue. bought the bike and have been dealing with it dying after 2 miles when test driving it. Took it out to test her and she made it one lap (3/4mile) so I left her running once I got back and checked the battery she was sitting at 13.5v. Went for another lap(3/4mile) and...

Dropped by 1994 750cc Vulcan and the front left turn signal broke. The bulb and wiring is still good so maybe I just need to replace the filter/light cover. I bought an OEM replacement for the entire signal but am not familiar with doing electrical work. Do I need to disconnect the battery...

I am new here - but have an electrical question. 1994 750cc Vulcan. I have never done any electrical work in my life. Bike dropped and front turn signal is busted. I have purchased an OEM replacement with all of the wiring etc. The bulb is intact so it's possible I will just have to replace...

Hi, I just got my first Kawasaki Vulcan 750 with 14k miles from 1995. I have a few problems with it. The bike would start after 2 days, and run well for 5 minutes, then sputter, and the throttle would not do anything. After this the fuse is blown every single time. Now the fuse blows as soon...

So I'm trying to slim my '05 750 down as much as possible and I bought a license plate cover with blinkers built in on the sides without thinking about it too much.After reading about the turn signals, they have 3 wires per signal. From the pictures it looks like this license plate has only 1...

I have a 96 vulcan 750 and the battery runs down after about 300 - 400 miles. The auto parts store tester says the voltage regulator failed, and the technician suggested that may mean the whole alternator needs to be replaced. I looked in my manual, and that looks like way too involved of a...

Hi there, I'm a relatively new rider, licensed just over a year. I've got a '94 Vulcan 750 with about 17k miles. Got her tuned up in May 2014 but recently, late September, I was riding on the highway when I experienced a sudden loss of power. My bike runs awful now. I have to keep the...

Hello, first off thank you to everyone who helps me solve this problem. I will describe the bike, then the issue and everything I know and have checked. The bike is a 94 and the previous owner had done electrical work on it to make it minimalistic. To start the bike one flips two switches and...

Hey all, I thought I would just post a quick write-up of an issue I have had off and on that got pretty bad a few weeks ago. I kept having issues with my bike shutting off in the middle of riding, it didn't matter how fast or what I was doing. I wold simply be riding along and the engine would...

I recently bought the bike and it started and ran fine. The blinkers dont work and the original owner gave me a new voltage regulator because the battery apparently died after a few days. I installed the regulator and started it up. Within seconds the voltage reg heated up , almost painful to...

Hi Guys I have finally got round to doing the junction box mod on my bike, I had to buy another used JB as my old one was badly corroded, the one I bought has the same part no: 26021 but when I have opened it up there is only one single relay in there : MR 301- its an (NEC) relay, I was...

so I just recently got a 2001 Vulcan 750, the headlight lamp on the cluster is on which I know means the bulb is burnt out and the relay is running the bright on dim. now I haven't been able to get a new headlight bulb yet but my front running and tail lights are not on, turn signals work when...

Hi guys I couldn't find another thread about this, I have seen a video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYaXeErd1Fw its about changing the relays inside the junction box which is a sealed unit and expensive to buy if you can still by them at all, the guy in the vid bought the relays...

Greetings, I'm a newbie, so please forgive any lapses in comity. Anyway, trying to get my '89 VN750 back on the road. It was running fine, until I put it in the garage while a two week spate of rain kept me off the road. When the weather broke, it wouldn't crank over. Exactly like what a dead...
