Complete lack of start up.

[His Dudeness]

I had a similar problem with mine about two weeks ago


Pressed the starter button and nothing happened at all
No clicking from the solenoid


It turned out that the alarm loop plug had come disconnected.


The alarm loop plugs (two of them) are located under the seat near the CDI box.
I think that's where you connect an alarm if you have one.


How one of them got disconnected... I've no idea.
Anyway thanks to 'Unfazed' it now seems to work fine.

i wonder????
i put a new battery in mine last thursday and its as dead as a dodo already. yet i only have a positive and negative lead going to my battery. anybody have any suggestions

I'd charge up the battery fully. then start the bike and measure the voltage across the battery while the bike's running and revved to check if it's charging or not or if it's over charging. if the voltage is staying the same or dropping you'll have to test the charging circuit. if it is charging you might have something drawing current while the bike is off. turn the bike off. disconnect one of the wires going to the battery and set your multimeter to amps then connect one of the multimeter leads to the battery and the other to the wire you just disconnected from the battery. check if there's any current draw draining the battery
