No start .

Blitz if your out there give me a hola,

The bike at times wont start, you hit the start button and nothing happens,but once I turn the steering to the right the bike will start. Blitz told me what it might be last summer but I have long since forgot about it. Anyone seen this or have ideas? Im going to check pin fit and all connectors at the steering colum, Hola back.

I know...I know.... the same thing happened to me last summer... and for two weeks Vincent and me pulled our hair out trying to fix it....to make a very long story short....I drag my bike and the pull down straps put a lot of pressure on the wires on the right side of the bike right under the gas tank cover and one of the wires in the harness broke apart and would seperate just enough not to let the bike start if the front wheel was turned to the left or straight....BUT if you turned it to the right it would start up every TIME!!!!!!! you may have to cut the plastic tube that the wires run in to see it and look real good for it I could not find the bad wire untill I pulled on the wires looking for a break and it just fell apart in my hands...Good Luck hunting!

The bike always starts, its just ever once and a while that when you hit the start button it wont do anything till you turn the steering to the right, if you hold the start button down and turn the steering to the right it will crank and start right over. It has been getting worse.

I would check your main battery ground connection to the engine. Could be loose or connection point needs to be cleaned.

It's got to be that wire loom binding up some where in there!? from the starter switch to the battery!?
