    Default VN wont start

    My VN will turn over then will only run for about 1 - 2 seconds then stops. I'm not a mechanic, so i have no idea what to do. I'm guessing it's not electronics, any ideas.

    Get the Ignition Coils checked. Sounds like they are on their way out. A very common VN problem.
