I have a new 850 that will not start. It will crank and once in a while it will cough once. When I shut off the key it makes a ticking sound. Any ideas?

First thing to check is the battery. Put a volt meter on it.

I have the battery on a charger. It cranks like crazy but won't start.

Pull your plugs and inspect. 850's run rich.

I'll give that a try. Thanks!

x2 on possible fouled plugs. Start there and see what you get.

My vote is that you have carbon fouled plugs. Put hotter ones in.

Thanks, how do I remove the seat. It seams loose up front but I don't want to force it and break something.

Just pull up on the back of it.
