MC900

Cheers guys.

So a fucked battery could possibly be the reason? Would it cause the bike to cut out as well as bad starting?My battery is maintenance free so doesn't need filling up. Cheers. I've got the Haynes manual, I could try and get a compression test done. Cheers for the help.

Cheers ill sort that out now

Hi guys, Im 29 and from Liverpool. ive been riding for about 2 years now on a YBR125 and Ive recently got my full bike license and im saving up for a Fazer or something of the like. Be safe :).

Hi guys. Yesterday I tried starting my bike and it wouldn't have it. Eventually after me putting it in gear and clutch in it started. This was a coincidence though because after filling up at a petrol station it wouldn't start again in gear or neutral. This problem doesnt happen all the time, it can go weeks without happening or happen once then start the 2nd time. It doesnt seem to be weather/temp related as it happens when cold or hot starting. Ive had this problem for a while along with another problem which is probably related. My bike would cut out and not start, or if it did start it would cut out couple of seconds down the road and struggle to start again. I recently had the fuel injector cleaned and my bike started running after being unable to get it going for a few days, but the bike still sometimes struggles to start and still cuts out mostly when first starting it up from cold. Things ive done to the bike. Replaced spark plug Had fuel injector cleaned Had neutral switch replaced because that broke I have took the bike to 2 garages and none of them know what is wrong with the bike. The first garage reckons it is the piston rings worn out (a few other mechanics including the 2nd garage told me that its definitely not that). The 2nd garage couldnt find any problems with the bike, the mechanic had a test ride and it cut out on him but he didnt know what it was and told me to take it to a main dealer if it keeps happening. If anyone can help with this problem it would be greatly appreciated because its ongoing and pissing me off ;p. I have a video of today when it struggled to start, maybe it will help.
