On my 2013 xvs1300 tonight, at traffic lights and bike just stopped. Tried to start but won't turn over or bump start.

checked the following:- fuel, OK.  Kill switch, run. Neutral, yes. Side stand, up. Battery, fully charged.

and it's a bloody heavy thing to push.

any ideas why it won't turn over or start?

 

regards

Update any ideas.

went out to bike after about 3hrs and it started on problem, as if nothing was wrong. Totally confused.

has anybody got any ideas as to why the bike stopped, electrics all OK. Then started after about 3hrs?

Or faulty side stand switch?

Check your water/coolant level, that might be it, as above it does sound like an overheat. Some folks have had a slight problem with the neutral switch but other than that it seems a pretty solid bike.

If it is an overheating situation, it may have just been the hot weather, if not that then there could be something causing the overheating. But this is just speculation on the possibility of an overheat. Generally the most simple answer if the correct one.

Problem sorted.    Datatool alarm faulty, only 2years old. I got it replaced under warranty - cost £80.00 call out- 

might go down the line of getting some sort of compo from datatool.

anyway the bikes up and running. Happy days

Ah, if you had said it had an alarm, I'd have said that's probably the culprit, and even if not, it's likely to cause more problems than it's worth at some point.

Glad you're sorted
