MustangMark83 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I have a 2005 Yamaha R6 with 4000 miles on it. I drove it for a couple miles and stopped to talk to somebody. I left the key in the on position, but the engine wasn't running. The electric fan came on and I wasn't paying any attention to it, and I'm not sure how long it ran, maybe 10 mins? Anyways, when I tried to re-start the bike, it made a buzzing sound. The gauges would come on, and reset itself, but it wouldn't even try to turn over, it just buzzed at me. I began pushing the bike home, and after about 10 mins I tried to start it again, and it cranked a little, but then it buzzed. I suppose after a while the batteries regain a little bit of juice, but not enough to turn over? Who knows, maybe it's not the battery at all, could be something else - but I'm going with the obvious because of the situation. Does anyone else think that's the problem?

andreajones021 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 The electric fan came on and I wasn't paying any absorption to it, and I'm not abiding how continued it ran, maybe 10 mins? Anyways, if I approved to re-start the bike, it fabricated a active sound. The gauges would appear on, and displace itself, but it wouldn't even try to about-face over, it just bashed at me. I began blame the bike home, and afterwards about 10 mins I approved to alpha it again, and it cranked a little, but again it buzzed. _________________ Bathroom fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shep639 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 A 2005 bike that's only done 4000 miles, your battery may be getting a little tired. Have a good blat on it, check the voltage across the battery terminals when you put it away. Recheck the voltage before you next start it. A significant drop means new battery time. Remember, bikes like to be ridden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
