How's it going guys? I was wondering if anyone else has encountered a similar problem.

Key on,switch on i go to push the ignition button and nothing. No click, nothing.

I took off the seat, checked the solenoid and if i bypassed the wires & just jumpered the solenoid, boom cranks right up and idled.

Used a multimeter & am getting 12 volts at the switch on the handlebar, tested the otherside to see if the power was going through and it tested 12 volts when i pushed the start button down.

I am not too electrical savy however i was wondering if you could give me some advise on what to check next before i go and spend some money & have someone else look at it.

thank you!

If you no gottee lites up front, theres a connector under the tank that has been known to work itself aloose..Thatll shut down the starting & running stuff, too..Of course theres fuses , access under r/side of seat, white plastic box, 2 fuses, IIRC. Not a big box. Once ya know where it is, its accessible w/o pulling the seat, but you need to pull it now, anyway,
let us know what youre finding,

Id sure have a look at the cables, on the battery & the ground on the r/side of the case.

Hey guys, thanks i'll check out the decomp solenoid once it stops raining.

However for the mean time, a little update.

I decided what the hell, its cheap enough so i got a new starter solenoid and i replaced that bit still nothing. No headlight dimming, no click, no sounds at all when i attempt to fire it up.

I used a paper clip to jumper the 2 wire, green connector plug thats under the seat to see if the kickstand switch was the problem but that didnt help at all, still the same.

Hey justin_o_guy2, thanks for the info. I'll check that our tomorrow afternoon when i get out of work. If I jumper that and the bike turns over & start whats that mean?

doing that, is that the same as using a using a screw driver and touching these two together? Because if so, ive already done that and the bike starts right up
