Spirit Lake IA "Birthplace of Victory Motorcycles" | Any tips for cold weather starting? The other day, I was doing some work on my bike and tried to start it up. It was only 32 degrees F. Cranked and cranked and couldn't get fired up. This normal? Anything I should check / try. My closest dealer is 90 miles away. |

Bellevue, NE | Have you started it previously this winter? If not allowed to run until the motor warms up, the spark plugs tend to foul.
There is a lot of info on the VMC site in the Technical Help thread about this very problem.

Spirit Lake IA "Birthplace of Victory Motorcycles" | Thx! Last time I started it, I'm sure I didn't let it warm completely up. I just pulled it to another part of my garage. I'll try again and if that doesn't work, I'll clean the plugs. Thx! |
