    Bike only runs good on reserve.

    When I first bought the bike over winter I never noticed this issue I can't remember. I wonder if adding a battery tender wire to the battery post could have a issue with one of the wires not having good contact? I guess I am going to check that as well.

    Bike only runs good on reserve.

    So since it runs great in RES in is more then likely just the switch? No moving parts means its not going to hurt anything to leave it till I can have someone smarter then me to look at it.

    Bike only runs good on reserve.

    What should I look for for problems. It seems to not get enough gas when its not on reserve. I always thought I had a lean condition due to a off throttle pop. How I found what the problem was I was riding it around and thought that I was running out of gas hit reserve and right away the bike...
