Just an update on my bike Brown. I ended up having to replace the actual fuel pump in order to fix the problem. Runs like a champ now. Found some heat shielding to put in between the pump and the engine where the foam usually sits. Seems like there's no problem anymore. I'm guessing the pump...
So I was talking to a buddy about the problem on my bike and he asked me if I had a Power Commander V. I said "yes I do" and then he stated that the PCV could be the problem. I figured I would give it the old college try being that it's not a hard upgrade to return back to stock.

If I go into my garage right now and turn the key, pull in the clutch and press the start button then the engine will crank and turn over no problems. I started her up the other...
Daniel, you mind if I poke your brain a little bit about the same situation? I have a 2000 that's starting to give me trouble and I was going to upgrade the starter clutch parts.
