Have you checked the main fuse in the starter solenoid?
Killswitch isn't in the off position is it? (we've all done it)

Re: Bike won't start please help
Have you tried jump leads? This will let you see if it is dead - fuses or what - or you can bump it.....
My money, if it was working fine, is on a flat battery

You have to get a multimeter and check the battery voltage with the ignition off and on.

Re: Bike won't start please help
on the pos and neg on the battery itself...
reading with it off - should be more than 13v
