Yesterday out for a ride on my 07 Bonneville to a car show. About 35 miles each way. 90 degrees. On the ride home about 5 miles from home, it started to hesitate, popped, sputtered, so I instinctively reached down and spun the petcock to reserve (even though I knew it had plenty of gas) then it finally stalled. I got it off the side of the road, then tried to restart, nothing. Opened the gas tank, to confirm, plenty of fuel. I shut the key off then back on, and then tried again, just spun, no fire. I pushed the bike down the street to a safer spot, then was going to call friends for help. Before I made the call, turned the key on hit the starter and fired right off. Rode it home without the first indication anything was out of sort, ran great. So now comes the fun part. I almost wish It did not re fire, that way I could have got it home and figure out offending component, now I have to wait for it to quit on me again.
I have two 07 Bonneville's the other soon after I bought it (used) would not fire, and It ended up being the magnetic crank trigger.
I'm suspect of that on this one, but question if it would be intermittent? Seems more like something that just quits one day?
Of course it could be the dreaded little black box.
Any input or ideas would be appreciated
Thanks!!
