We've ruled out everything, except for what's wrong with it.

I think Im going to call them in the morning and see when they can look at it. If its nothing soon Ive already got a reservation to drop it off at the dealer tomorrow night and be looked at friday.

I'd do the Doug thing too, but it sounds like you want to take it to the dealer which surely will cost more. Don't get paralyzed a decision is better than no decision.

I didnt necessarily want to take it to a dealer, I wanted to fix it myself. The thing is, I have no problem fixing a problem, but I hate troubleshooting things to find the problem. So after I tried to find the problem for a few days I finally got pissed and just said fuck it and called the dealer. I had already made the plans to get it there before I found out about the guy at mph so I just said what the hell and took it to the dealer. If I end up with any other issues that I cant figure out it will definitely be going to mph.

It will be interesting to see what the problem was. Keep us posted

UPDATE: Just heard from the dealer this morning, and now I get to spend a bunch of money. Turns out the little spark my buddy said he say wasnt nearly enough to fire the bike. They said one of the four coils is toast and of course theyre only sold as a package deal for all 4 for my bike. Parts are over 200, then over 150 for them diagnosing it and installing the new parts. Yay...
