Hi everyone,
I have a 2001 Yamaha V Star 650 Classic with about 11k miles. Over the past couple of weeks I've been having some strange issues. Sometimes I'll ride 40-60 miles just fine, but when I stop and kill the engine it won't start right up. At the gas station I fueled up but it took 5-7 min of trying before it would turn over and even then it let out a shotgun style pop. I don't know how it started again but I tried jiggling the wire from the starter switch, opening the gas cap for vapor lock etc. Most recently Ive had it parked for a few days because of rain but now it won't start. It sounds like it normally does right before it turns over but it doesn't. It's a really great bike but I can't think if anything. Any help is greatly appreciated - thanks in advance
