The bike won't start!
11/10/15 at 11:14:09

Hello! I recently converted my bike from bobber back to stock. The only thing I did was changing back to the stock rear fender and taillight. I took it for a spin and the bike worked great. The next day the bike was dead. I tried to start it, but the battery went flat before I ever got the bike going again. Now after recharging the battery the bike is completely dead. The decompression lever is the only thing that makes a clicking sound when I try to start it (it makes two clicks, opening and closing).

When the key is switched to "ON" all lights are normal.
When the key is switched to "P" only taillight works.
The fuses looks fine.
I have removed the horn and blinkers.

voltage readings are necessary to tell if the battery has took a charge, until then we are pissing in the wind.

the decomp works so the safeties aren't the problem and you're good up to the relay. You might give it a rap to see if it's stuck.

and check your wiring, perhaps something pulled loose that you didn't have tight.

in particular, a three wire connector under the seat, wires to the relay, the big connectors under the tank, etc, etc...

What do you mean by "give it a rap to see if it's stuck."? I did a little "tune up" on the decompression lever, but the bike is still dead. Sorry my english is not the best.

Hit with the handle of a plastic screwdriver either on the relay or near it on the fender.

Generally, they get stuck on, but you never know.

I know the design was probably copied from Lucas (prince of darkness) but I didn't know that Microsoft made it.
