Need Help Bike won't start
Hopefully someone can help me I am totally lost.
98 Fatboy
Started this morning just fine. Left it to warm up for a bit jumped on and she died out. Went to restart and nothing.....
Just cranks and cranks.
Battery is fine went and got a new single fire coil and still nothing.
No spark, new coil tested fine.
Ignition mod has led red solid when ignition on and blinks when hitting the start.
Still nothing any ideas?
Changed plugs too.

I have a 95 Fat Boy and had the same problem. When I was at my wit's end, I noticed that the little silver tip of the spark plugs that the plug wire fits on was unscrewed a little and was loose. Tightened it back down and it fired right up. I have no idea what or how it happened unless the vibration did it. Both plugs were loose on mine.

Hey
Checked the plugs both are new and fine.
Fuel is on and u smell gas when trying to start.
Took the battery for a load test came back as 230 exchanged it for a new better one that tested very good load at 490.
Put the new bat in and same problem.
Cranks but won't turn over.
cleaned terminals everywhere starter, battery etc.
ignition module light turns red when on and clicks green when attempting to start.
coil brand new and tested, wire from ignition has power.
still no spark and obviously will not turn over.
question
if the ignition mod is bad will it still light up? (its 6 months old)
also carb was cleaned out a few weeks ago no problem there.
any more ideas?
Keep in mind it started fine, warmed up a bit then completely died when we got on to leave.
