1998 heritage rear cylinder not firing
I checked the spark plugs, and there is sparks from both. The front cylinder is firing the rear is not. It was up to a few days ago. Took air breather off, rotated the throttle and lots of fuel injected into carb but still no action in rear cylinder. Any thoughts? Ken

Have you checked the compression in the cylinders or checked for intake leaks ?

Without tools or knowledge of the workings of the bike, it's best taken to the dealer then.
