First and always check Battery.. Especially for a good Ground.. many have spent hundreds just to find out all was wrong was didn't have a secure ground connection..

Always carry a 10mm wrench just for that purpose.

Yep, stopped in Belle Fourche SD last year. Bike would not restart. Loose battery cable. Five minute fix IF you have a 10mm wrench.
