Hello
sometimes when hauling a bike it is common that the cylinders can flood. you may need to clean the plugs and turn the bike over a few times to clean the fuel out of the cylinders. what usually happens. is if the fuel valve is left on, the floats are jumping up and down allowing fuel to by pass and that usually ends up in the cylinders. and this usually fouls the plugs. this is pretty common im sure you may find some results there. thank you.

The straps have deteriorated on the seat of our InStep trailer. Is there a replacement seat with straps that we can purchase.

you can call the company at (800) 242-6110 otherwise depending on the where the straps are you can goto almost any store - home dep - lowes - target - and make straps. Cut a hole either in the back or under the seat and strap them through.

1993 Kawasaki 750R - Model M , charging issue - WEIRD !!!

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Initially, have you checked the 30 Amps main fuse and its holder clips? It would be integrated with the starter relay. The fuse or the fuse holder may have heat related problem(s) causing it to loose conductivity when hot.The fuse may require replacement even if it tests good and/or the fuse holder would need cleaning / crimping. To locate the starter relay (main fuse), follow the battery cable from the + terminal of the battery.

Please postback results.

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.
