08 800 Missing / Bogging
Sorry I didn't get back to you's sooner on the diagnosis of this. A few days ago I went to start it and there was nothing. When I went to put the battery charger on it I noticed the ground connection was loose. Tightened it up and trouble free riding ever since. I am quessing was it got some vibration and shaking at the higher speeds the ground was loose enough to only ground intermittently. Runs like a charm now. One other question though. Has anyone found the oil drain plug extremely tight when they performed their first oil change? I twisted my allen wrench on it and then it slipped. I bought the socket drive style allen bit and I am hoping this is going to work. If the head gets stripped it is going to be ugly.

I think the allen may be metric.As in 6mm.
