Hiya everyone this is my first post. The problem is I've just gone start my bike after having the winter off and it won't start. The battery is good but when I turn the key the dash lights up but you don't hear the fuel pump prime and she don't turn over. I did take the battery off recharged it and checked it and the battery is fine.
Thanks
Chris

dude have a quick look at the tip over switch thats clipped oto the battery clamp , if its the wrong way round the pump wont prime and the bike wont start!!

hope this helps?
Let me know how you get on!

Cheers

Good god right then I spiked the alarm, I despiked it and now turn the key and nothing it lights up and that's it. And the alarm arms itself with the ignition on help!!!!
 
Blown fuses, check the 2 30 amp fuses next to the battery
Check the clutch inhibit switch to
 
There are two identical relays located behind the seat. You can get to them by taking the rearseat/p0od off. Swap them around. I had the sam e problem a while ago and this located the problem. The one relay is for your fuel pump - hence no priming whan you turn the key !:pirate
 
Thanks everyone i've done all the checks and guess what? It's sorted it was the kill switch after all the whole unit was knacked So now going to order a new one next week. Once again thanks to you all.
