No neutral???

Post by jordan-8710 »

Hi all. :peace:
I have a problem with my nc30. The other day I went to take it for a run but it wouldnt turn over. I noticed that it isnt registering that its in neutral even though it is, so the starter motor isnt turning. I was thinking it could be a wiring fault after sitting through the winter but im a bit worried cuz it took a bash on the gear selector (my f**kin dog knocked it over) :evil: .
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Jordan

Howdo - welcome to the site.

Sounds like you might have a loose neutral wire - on the right hand side and rear of the motor - if this is loose you won't get neutral light.

Also, try pulling the clutch in and see if the starter will work.

Doesn't sounds terminal anyways :o

We'll get you sorted.. :geek:

Cheers mate. Try get sme pics up soon, she,s a bit tatty just now tho.
tryed with the clutch in but wouldnt turn. I managed to get the bike started by bumping it then it seemed to go into neutral fine, then when i turned the ignition off problem came back. I, go and try that and let you know :pray: :pray:

Nice one that seems to have done the trick. The terminal was all corroded so I just gave it a cleanup. Just got new discs, the wheels powdercoated and wrapped in michelin pilot road 2s. dyin to go for a run but just started raining :down:
