Bike stuttered and died while riding. Replaced spark plugs and coil and wires. Turns over but will not start
There are several possible causes for your bike stuttering and then dying while riding, despite having replaced the spark plugs, coil, and wires. It's worth doing further diagnosis to identify the root cause. Here are some possible reasons why your bike won't start:
- Fuel delivery: Check to see if your fuel pump is working properly and ensure that your fuel lines and tank are clean and free of debris. If your bike has a carburetor, check to make sure that it's functioning correctly.
- Electrical system: Check that your battery is charged and in good condition. Also, ensure that the electrical connections are clean and tight. Make sure that the charging system is working correctly, as a bad stator or rectifier can cause similar symptoms.
- Ignition system: Make sure that the ignition system is working properly. Check the timing and make sure that the ignition switch, kill switch, and key switch are all functioning correctly.
- Compression: Make sure that your engine has good compression. A compression test can help identify if this is the issue.
- Other components: Other components, such as the cap and rotor, valve timing, fuel injectors, and camshaft position sensor, may also cause these symptoms.
It may be helpful to consult a mechanic or dealership if you are unable to diagnose the issue. They may be able to provide you with more specific guidance on how to fix the problem.

Yamaha yz 125 kickstart wont move
If the kickstart won't move and the bike won't go into gear, it's likely that there's an issue with the transmission or engine. Here are a few possibilities to consider:
- Seized engine: If the engine seized while you were riding, it could be preventing the kickstart from moving. This could be caused by a lack of oil, overheating, or other issues. If the engine is seized, you will likely need to replace it or have it rebuilt.
- Transmission issue: It's possible that there's an issue with the transmission that's preventing the bike from going into gear and the kickstart from moving. This could be caused by a variety of issues, such as a broken shift fork or worn gears. You may need to have the transmission inspected and repaired.
- Top-end issue: If the bike lost a lot of power before cutting out, it's possible that there's an issue with the top end of the engine. This could be caused by worn piston rings, a damaged piston, or other issues. You may need to replace the top end of the engine to resolve this issue.
It's difficult to say for sure what the issue is without a more thorough inspection of the bike. I would recommend taking it to a mechanic who can diagnose the issue and provide a repair estimate.

2022 Wr450f No indicators at all or indicator light on dash either.
Question edited for lot more clarity.
Question moved from Cars and Trucks.
Yes LED Bulbs are problematic because the control boards in them call back EMF to the electronic control modules. Try disconnecting the battery for a couple of hours to reset everything. If that doesn't work it is still under warranty..

How to set the YAMAHA Fz400r MOTORCYLE timing mark
The Fz400r is a motorcycle engine produced by Yamaha. To set the timing mark on the Fz400r, follow these steps:
- Remove the side cover from the engine to expose the timing mark.
- Locate the timing mark on the rotor, which is a small line or notch on the outer edge of the rotor.
- Use a timing light to align the timing mark on the rotor with the "T" mark on the stator.
- Loosen the bolts that secure the stator plate in place.
- Adjust the position of the stator plate until the timing mark on the rotor is aligned with the "T" mark on the stator.
- Tighten the bolts that secure the stator plate in place.
- Reattach the side cover to the engine.
It's important to consult the Fz400r's service manual for detailed instructions on setting the timing mark and to ensure proper timing of the engine.

2007 Yamaha v star 650 fuel milage?
frankly if it were mine and if runs great now then let it run .. the leaner the mixture the hotter the combustion which can burn valves. it might get better mileage after break-in but if 40 is what you got then 40 might be all you get.. Thats about what my vulcan gets. if you want really high MPG then you have to sacrifice speed .. a moped will get around 70MPG but it's not much fun and has no power to get out of the path of danger

My 2008 Yamaha V star mill turnover when I tried to start it but will not fire up. Why and I don't think I'm getting spark to my coil packs.
A motorcycle that turns over but doesn't start can be caused by a few different things. Some possible causes of the issue you are experiencing with your 2008 Yamaha V Star include:
- Fuel supply problem: If the fuel pump is not working properly or the fuel filter is clogged, it can prevent fuel from reaching the engine.
- Ignition system problem: If there is no spark at the coil packs, it could be due to a malfunctioning ignition module, a bad spark plug, or a problem with the ignition coil.
- Mechanical issue: If the engine is not getting compression, it could be due to a valve problem, a broken timing chain, or a seized piston.
- Electrical issue: If the engine is not getting power, it could be due to a dead battery, a corroded connection, or a problem with the starter.
It's best to check the battery and all the electrical connections first, also check if the spark plugs are fouled or damaged, if so change them
