 1986 virago 700 troubles?
I just bought a virago 700, and been having trouble with starting. i first thought i had a problem with the battery, it would not engage the starter and crank. I bought a battery and put it in, cranked right up, well i have gone on 3 rides, and only cranked it 10 times. Today i went for a ride, cranked right up went 100 miles, so my wife and i stopped to get gas. got gas and a snack, when we got ready to go i put the key in and tryed to crank it, nothing but click click click. stopped a minute tryed again same thing. the third time no sound nothing. so i had to roll start it, it cranked and we went back. on the way back i stopped by my parents house. cut it off took out the key, five minutes later i had to roll start it again. What could this be??? its a new battery so im a little confused?? thanks robert
PS im new to this motorcycle thing so i need all the help i can get, my wife and i got bikes the first of the week and been riding all weekend so im not very knowledgeable about them.
