Thanks, I'll resolder at the coil first!

my taco on my 83 mid max isn't working, it's hard to describe but the needle doesn't rev up like it should. I took it apart and it's a circuit...
Solenoid is good, plenty of battery, smack on the starter and it's fires rite up! Ordered a kit for 16.00 and I'll have it next week! Thanks guys!
It was at 12.93...
How many volts should the battery have? I put in a new one in January
I tried to jump the solenoid and it did nothing, not even spark! Should I get a new one?
I pulled the solenoid out of the bike so I just put it back in so I could jump it and I hit the switch to see if it would do anything and it...

Beautiful Bike Steve!
I have a squeak that happens when I'm turning right... Only right and when I'm pushing or pulling with the bars turned right I can feel the brake...
Thank you for the help!

Thanks thench!
I'm in Auburn. I ride every chance I get!
Any Seattle / Tacoma people around?
I have a seat and side covers, I need to recover the seat and covers. The covers are pretty bad but solid!
Thanks XJ, I ordered a set today!

Got a little voltage leaking out of one of my wires, anyone have a recommendation on new coils?
Cool, I'm getting my Carbs cleaned and rebuilt on mine to get 33 years of crap out of em so I can get em synced next week!
If the plug wires are cracked do you have to change the coil?
Nice bike! I have the same one!
I just bought the tools to sync my own carburetors. I'll let ya know how it works out!
I picked mine up this time last year and I've put over 5,000 miles on mine and love it!
That's exactly what I found on my 83 mid max when I put it on the road last year. When this happens the rear brakes will lock up unexpectedly!...
I'm pretty good doing alot of the routine thing but the carb syncing make me nervous..
Thank you!
Wondering if anyone knows a good shop in the Seattle Tacoma area of Washington. I need to get my carburetors synchronized!
Thanks! Yep, It's a 83 mid max 750. Bought it a year ago when I decided to start riding again. Still working some bugs out but I really love the bike!
My name is Mike and I'm new here!
Has anyone experimented with hotter plugs the stock bp7es plugs are a bit dark. I'm thinking about trying a bp6es?
Thanks! That's gives me a idea of what to look for!
