Hey guys new to the site and just got my first Kawasaki this week. Came over from the Honda side of the house. I've been riding for about 2 years now and finally stepped up to a nice bike I can sink some money into. Right now my new Vulcan 1600 isn't turning over and forgive me if I'm overstepping my bounds but I'd like to get this resolved before it's too cold to ride her. I've included the problem below. Look forward to working with you guys.
Kawasaki Vulcan 1600 Just bought it but it wont start. I figured the battery was shot but just to get it running I tried jumping the battery off a car. No luck at all same thing it turns over a couple of times and proceeds to click after that. Pulled the plugs on the bike out and took off the gas tank and emptied it out. Gas was bad and all 4 plugs were fouled out. But without the plugs in it turns over really well. Going to pick up new plugs tomorrow and put new gas in but I doubt that will solve my turning over problem. Also I'm not sure if it makes a difference or not but the headlight doesn't come on. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
