Okay, ya'll know I just finished rebuilding the FireLizard's engine. Well, I rode it to work today, and rode it home with no problems, but as soon as I got into my drive way, put it in neutral, and suddenly, neutral light goes out, I put down the kickstand and the motor dies. I know it is supposed to die when you put down the stand while in gear, but not in neutral. And now, I can't even get the starter to kick over, I hear a click, (only with kickstand up, and still in neutral) but nothing. I have plenty of juice in the battery.

Would that keep the starter from engaging even with the stand up and clutch pulled in?

Apparently something is though. Well, I'll have to take a look at it when I get time, which won't be until next Wednesday.

But any other suggestions of what it could be?

Oh, I just remembered something else. Earlier at work I moved the bike closer to the doors of where I come out and when I started the bike it first acted like the battery was dead, but it did fire up and when I fired it up to leave from work it started normal.

check to see if the bolt under the kickstand is loose. if it is, the bike wont start. it does nothing. Ive had the same thing happen to mine  exactly and i found it to be the problem. do you have lights?

I've had trouble with that big connector under the tank also. Make sure it is tight. Check you battery ground and engine ground. The engine ground runs down by the oil sight glass and can come loose. Luck

I put a switch from a dead dvd player, tiny, no current capacity, microswitch, on the decomp solenoid controller & went to the hot wire under the seat. I can crank mine over with the switch off if I want to, I got tired of the "No Start" crap. It hasnt made me use it in a long time, but its there if I need it.

Okay, the wire wasn't broke after all, but it was bare and I believe was grounding against the block. I took a good look at it and found it was still in very good condition, so what I did was wrapped it to keep it from grounding against something.

Since I took the cover off, I have to wait for some more oil to test fire it.
