Hello all,
Last week my bike wouldn't start. I ride it everyday and after 4 years it was time for a new battery. After the new battery went in, I turn the key to 'ON' and the usual pre-start sequence (tach and odometer cycle from 0 to 300) did its thing, but there was not the usual sound that goes with that sequence. Does anyone know what that sound is? The sound is coming from under that tank, could it be the fuel pump?
Even with the new battery, the first time I try to start the bike in the morning there is no sound from that pre-start sequence and the bike won't start. I have to push the starter button at least twice to get it to start. Any ideas?
