my bike will not start. after the 5 time it turn over
if your starting it when it is cold, is the choke on and the petcock in prime?
if so and it still has trouble have you checked the amount of power comming from your battery?
Check your spark plugs.
is there enough gas in the tank?
what have you tried so far?
We need alot more info to help you. Please tell us what you have tried , when was the last time it started.
I think it would be a lot easier for people to help if you give more information. It could be a lot of different things.
A more descriptive title than "bike" would be helpful too. :laugh:
EDIT: I was beaten to the punch.
i was out of state for a week. HERE it just rained. the bike is coverd all week long.with out a start
will it turn over at all. and have you tried push starting it?
it will
is the key in the ignition?
Ok it was running fine a week ago. You left your bike outside under cover for 1 week. Once you got back it will not start up.
Did you check to make sure the red kill switch is on run?
Try doing this
1 Put key in ignition
2 turn ignition to on position
3 make sure the red kill switch is on the Run position
4 make sure bike is in Neutral
5 open choke
6 pull in clutch and press the starter button
Is your bike trying to start or when you press the starter it just sits there?
yes it has key ignition. see it whould act like it whould start and thin thing. like i ssaid it will start. it just sat for a week. but i started before leaving the state.
So...to clarify...it WILL start, but it has to turn over a lot to start? Was this just the first time you tried, or is it doing this consistently?
i vote for dead battery. does it make a clicking sound after you've held the start button down for a bit? so... wants to turn over then won't then click click click click.....?
It sounds as though the bike *will* start, but it starts with some difficulty....
like what?
Oh boy ok. So the bike starts but it's hard to start?
Try recharging your battery and see what happens.
I think we might have a language barrier...Apollo is possibly one of our beloved international members? :kiss3:

I was getting the same feeling
I suspect water in the gas. Drain the floatbowls.

THANKS PEOLPE
:dunno_white: Apollo just tring to help
I KNOW JUST SAYING THAT FOR THE COM.
hey apollo man
if it starts but it takes awhile for it to kick over its probably a dead battery..
If it doesnt want to turn over but you can get it to start by pushing it and then popping the clutch. its a dead battery..
If it starts but takes awhile then back fires a little bit there might be gas in the tank like previously mentioned.
Whats your location.??
