Vulcan SE, no acceleration - 8/30/2007 10:29:35 AM

Status: offline 		I have just bought two Vulcan SE. Both of them have no acceleration. I need to give them a push to get them going, then they slowly pick up speed until I turn, then they virtualy stop.
Any Ideas what could be causing this? I thought they might be stuck in second gear but what would cause that to happen on two brand new cars?
Any sugestions would be appreciated.

Status: offline 		I would agree with ehroof, it sounds like they are both running very rich (this is a good thing for break in) you mentioned maybe they are stuck in second gear, did you put the 2 speed transmission on them? in stock from the have a single speed installed.
