    Pull a spark plug . Wet … no spark . Dry…… no fuel .

    It’s a start anyway , not guaranteed !

    Roger .....Welcome To Trike-Talk..........Setting for 3 months..Throw a charge on the battery, And maybe also check to see if you have enough gas in the tank??

    Battery is charged and good pulled plug there is no spark I think it has something to do with the wiring due to the kit installed going to try to talk to the installer tomorrow maybe they can help

    Crazy as it sounds check and see if the kill switch is in the position…All when the trike was a two wheeler there’s a kill switch on the kickstand and sometimes the installer will just tape it back and not disconnect it?..

    Check the kill switch on the right side cluster on the handlebar, could have been bumped and now off.

    Put the trike in neutral and hold the clutch lever in.

    I would pull the seat off & look for sign's of Mice in there eating up the wires ? You rode it to were you parked it ? Can you here the fuel pump run when you turn the key on ?

    We like trying to fix stuff our self to many times when we take them to garages they just throw parts on and charge a arm and leg and still don't fix the problem. They could learn more doing research on line hopefully my problem might help someone else.thanks
