dansr125 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 hi all first thing im new to this site so hello every one secondly- i was riding my sr125 yesterday and all was going fine i was doing about 60mph and all of a sudden the bike just cut out and slowed to a stop, very annoyed :@ theres power from the battery going through the bike as neutral light, indecaters etc all work fine, but when i go to start the bike nothing happens not even a clicking sound, bikes been fine in the dry but riding in the wet yesterday i suspect a short stopping the starter to fire up but im very unsure. any help would be very appricated as the bike was due for its mot today but dont look like that is going to happen now. cheers dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator DirtyDT Posted September 24, 2012 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2012 Sounds like the circuit to the coil and the starter are shorting out or something like the stand down kill circuit is earthing out. I guess the run switch is in the correct position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator DirtyDT Posted September 24, 2012 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2012 Can you disconnect the side stand down switch and see what happens? It should be reconnected before riding but if it starts you know where the fault is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YPVS TONE Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Although you say the Kill switch is in the right position try spraying some WD40 in the switch and turnig it On and Off in case water has got into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
