Help diagnose: Bike does not start
I am in the process of removing the street parts from the bike . It looks like there is no power going through to ignition.All I can think of is making sure that the wire above the battery( 2 of them one black one white) are connected. I removed the sidestand, but the switch with the wires in it is pushed up( I think its the on position). What am I missing here? I am almost sure that its some other plug that I removed and forgot to plug back in.
Any help will be appreciated. |

This may sound stupid but the wires under the seat are quite picky about how they lay down. I had power issues for a couple months about a year ago that I just couldn't figure out and finally I cleaned up the wires with some tape and I haven't had any issue whatsoever since doing so.
I would start it with the seat off and adjust those wires to see if having them sit in a different position helps it out. |

Thanks for the reply. I checked the wires under the seat , and they seemed fine. The problem is that I took off everything and let the bike sit until yesterday, so I am not sure if I pugged all the wires back. I checked the battery, and its seems to have a full charge. When I turn the key to ignition, even the lights dont come on. ( I tested it by connecting the speedometer console back. )
As far as the bike stand goes, there was switch like thing that moves up when you kick up the stand . This is the on position right? Can anyone confirm? |
