Now my bike won't start!!
If it's not one thing. Just finished fixing the panel put that back on a 7 this morning went to go to work at 8 and bike wouldn't start. Electrics and battery are ok and starter motor was going but it just wouldn't fire up. Any ideas?

Re: Now my bike won't start!!
in true "have you turned it off and on again?" fashion.... i'll start with an obvious one..
did you check the fuel tap ? i dont know if you took the tank off? pinched fuel hose?
erm.... engine stop switch? (dude that would be embarasing )
can you smell fuel coming out the exhaust?
erm... has a mouse crawled in the exhuast?
ok im grasping at straws now

Side stand cut out...? Somehow? Em...enough petrol? How insulting do you want us to be??
Re: Now my bike won't start!!
haha very funny.
yes I have checked all the usual idiot issues (sidestand, engine kill switch etc) if it was one of those then the engine wouldn't turn over at all. I am hoping that it is somthing relativly simple like worn out HT leads but I hadn't considered a mouse up the exhuast pipe ( sounds unpleasent but whatever floats your boat). garage are picking it up tomorrow so fingers crossed.
It could be a blocked fuel line as the petrol was quite low in the tank so may be reserve hose is blocked, would explain why it wokred on Friday and not on monday.
