Issue with old gen starting
06 rode 200 miles back from obx, parked, went to start up several days later and it won't turn over...
Never had any issues with this before? Lights turn on so battery shouldn't be dead? Also bike is idling a bit low? How can I adjust this Does anyone seafoam these?

Yes, we use seafoam but your success will vary. My best guess is your battery is low. ie... enough to work the lights but not enough to start it. Try a jump start.
Next would be to check/clean/tighten your battery terminals while your there. Good luck Drew!
