So.. me and my buddy changed my rear subframe so that I can have the gf ride pillion....My buddy and I changed out the frame and put everything back in its proper place.. now the bike wont start. We were able to push start the bike and it would run for a little bit, but then die. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be going on? The battery sounds dead,but it shouldnt be, as it was full before the swap... I put it on the charger anyway.. Thanks.:pirate
 
mate if it starts then runs a little bit then dies make sure your fuel tip over switch is fitted the correct way:thumbup
this would cause this!
 
little black box behind batt with an arrow showing which way up it should go.

Mounted in a rubber holder from memory.
 
Wow, good call. I didnt even notice the arrow..

I feel like a ******. It was that, and the battery is now dead from me trying to start it a million times... hopefully I didnt break anything else. :-/ I have it on the charger now.. Thanks guys!
 
lol did exactly the same thing friday, luckily had been shaking the tip over switch arouind whilst i was at it, wondering why it rattled
 
yeah the little buggers often get tilted/misplaced and strand you,. at least you know where it is now.
