hi, battery ran down due to not using bike for 6 months(no optimate). re charged it and ran couple of days no problem then wouldnt start. pressed starter and nothing just fuel pump priming. pushed it to work (2 miles:angry) and charged battery, still no good so called rac and he started it off jump leads straight away, rode home no prob. bought new battery couple weeks later- dynabolt dtx12-bs filled with acid charged for 12 hours put in the bike , alarm and dash came on but still wont start. can hear fuel pump prime but nothing else. has a meta alarm/immobilisor if that makes a difference. thanks for any help
 
Could be the starter solenoid but I wouldn't be suprised if it's the alarm. Alarms are mostly a big pile of smelly stuff looking for an excuse to go wrong.

Even with a low batt the starter solenoid should click so if there s nothing other than the pump, i'd suspect the alarm.
 
Sounds like a problem I had. Ground lead to frame had a crack in it so was intermitent. Slapping another ground lead on from battery ground to the frame cured mine.
