2000 Yamaha VStar 1100, won't turn over.

[@peterdrude5798]

I can't thank you enough for making this video. I purchased a non-running V Star, and because of your "Mechanical Wisdom", it now runs! Mine was the Kill Switch, AND the Start Button. Many thanks from Western Massachusetts!😁

[@Nine_883]

The starter switch completes the ground to the relay coil. The first time you must have made a path to ground.

[@johnmiddleton726]

One more try: When you did the test for power to the kill switch, what is the power source to the switch? Really appreciate any info you can provide. Thanks

[@paullafontaine4708]

Hello looks like it was the kill switch killing power before starter button what did you find out

[@Hillsidebandit2wheellife]

What kind of bags are those I been trying to get some on my 1100 v star

[@r3ckl3ss_snip3r2]

I have the same exact motorcycle he doesn't know I asked him I've been looking for sooo long to find some bags.

[@r3ckl3ss_snip3r2]

It's a place called BadDad in Fort Wayne Indiana but your gonna be paying $2500 just for some simple bags.

[@strato5135]

Learned a lot, thanks.

[@rabidsquirrelgarage745]

Glad it was helpful!

[@captainhuey1765]

I have the exact same problem on a xvs650. The wiring harness and everything looks identical. Did changing the solenoid fix the problem?

[@johndunderdale9201]

Did you fix your problem? My 650 has the same thing

[@jasonwilson9284]

Hey Rabid Squirrel ! Wondering if you can recommend any mechanics near Raleigh NC this video I very helpful

[@broughtonparkade5381]

I had this problem on MY 2000 Vstar. My problem turned out to be the left hand switchblock. The part is so prone to failure that Yamaha discontinued it. I had to replace it with the Honda equivalent from a Shadow AND have all the fried wiring rebuilt.

[@r3ckl3ss_snip3r2]

Please tell me where did they get those bags from

[@rabidsquirrelgarage745]

This wasn't my Bike. I have no idea.

[@donaldsanders1455]

Do you have a number the I could call to troubleshoot?

[@franciscovalencia7601]

Can you recommend to buy a 2003 v star 1100 ?

[@rabidsquirrelgarage745]

don't do recommendations, however, I know several people that own them and have issue with the. They love the power it puts out.

[@daviddrennan1759]

Im working on an 05 with 18k and the starte turns but not the crank.

[@НадеждаБабкина-ю3д]

Жалко я не понимаю чего он там говорит. Но мне нравится просто смотреть как чинят мотоцикл и патом катаются на нем.

[@opinion4246]

Thank you my v star lloo got the dash and lights on.but won't turn over small wheasing sound..sound like under the seat.thats what I think it is, hopefully.

[@jeffcee9457]

You have been wonderful thanks a million i had the same problem thanks for sharing

[@johnmiddleton726]

I have done almost the same number of things to my VStar 1100 as you have. I think my kill switch has the same issue as yours. I am totally clueless as to how to remove the kill switch from the housing to check the contacts. If you can tell me or have pics for that job, I will show my appreciation by sending you a VISA gift card. Thanks!

[@chaddburch7429]

My 99 vstar 650 sometimes fires right up and sometimes cranks very slow and then starts And one time the start button actually did nothing after a couple presses it worked, new battery you have any ideas ?

[@rabidsquirrelgarage745]

Sounds like the battery needs replaced but .. you may have a drwa on the battery, something draining it when you're not riding. Did you put any add-ons like lights or anything on it?

[@ismaelpagan7269]

I really like video but really needs a camera guy. Would be so much better to see up close. Thanks

[@123456789MATTSOL]

Did those saddle bags look to big ? Where did he buy them ?

[@rezabaghernejadkashani6054]

Thanks man!!!!

[@Nine_883]

One of them fuses is the main fuse and the other 30amp is the spare.

[@Nine_883]

Blue is ground on the relay coil.

[@americoreyes9713]

[@sheresasanders8567]

[@tantaluss68]
