Strange Development just occured....

Funny....the rad fan is seized , the temp gauge dont work and the bike won't start now....

Plenty of battery....

What I mean is the starter motor wont even turn!!! But all lights are on???

WTF???

 

ive seen many batteries that will charm the lights, but will not fire a bike.
basically discharged to no-load potential.

does it go click,click,click,click,click,click,click,click, real fast when you hit go?
if so, your starter relay is probably good, but not enough batt

temp gage- is it analog? if so, it wont move from stop unless warm

fan- is the engine hot enough to trigger fan? at least about 200F or so?
or have you tried to jump the switch and it still wont turn?

 

Stupid question but is the bike in neutral when you are trying to start it?

Yes it is! I am mystified here?

 

Ithe killswitch is fine...the starter doesnt move and all the lights are on???

 

the fan is seized and needs to be replaced

 

Turns out the battery was low like you said....I am charging it right now

I guess the battery doesn't charge while the bike is idling?

 

BTW....Thanks

 

May not be charging enough... or the Regulator is toasting.

 

No it's not like a car... I believe you have to be cruising on the bike for a good 10 minutes at least before you're going to start putting some juice back into the battery..

 

regulator is supposedly new...according to the ex dumbass that owned the bike...said it was his baby....its become the bane of my existence

 

battery tender, well worth the $35... I am still on my orig battery and R/R since 1992. 18 years and still rockin

 

+1.... most of them even come with the "hardwire" pigtails you can run outside of the fairing. Makes it a simple 2-second process to plug it in when you get home.

 

si, si and I have a powered tank bag. I unplug from the charger and plug into my bag. Run GPS, radar detector and phone charger off of it.

 

I have an extra radiator fan that I could sell you if you need it. Send me a PM if you are interested.

I actually saw some at the local motorcycle shop.... weren't super expensive either....

 

.....:doh: lol
