Start up issues?
01/02/20 at 16:12:34

So the other day I set my battery on a battery tender and let it get a full charge because after changing my petcock to the raptor 660 the bike wouldn't start. then today I put it in and the bike started up, then died. Then I opened the choke and the bike started up it idled but then once I let go of the clutch in neutral it died again. I pulled the hose off of the petcock from the carb and switched it to on and gas came out so
I don’t think it’s the petcock . Now
I’m trying to turn it on again and it’s making that same noise as last Time before I charged the battery..

And what type of battery (lead acid, AGM, Gel)? Did it sound right at all when trying to start? If it did then how many times before I started to sound like that recording?

wish I knew how old it was but the mechanic shop I bought the bike from said they swapped the battery (claimed it was new) but who really knows *shrug* ill pull the battery out tomorrow and get further info on it in terms of brand and what not. haven't had this issue before so I can't tell if its just a bad battery or what but I did just order a multimeter

Also the video has no visuals as my phone was resting on the gas tank I just uploaded it to have people hear the sound.

Got the sound to play, and it does sound like a bad battery , if you were working on the lights and left the key on for an extend period, without starting the bike, that can ruin your ignition TDI . It's always a good idea to unplug the TDI to avoid damage .
If you have jumper cables and a car battery you could try that (car NOT running).
