is there a definitive list somewhere of what to check if your bike wont start?
So far: Battery - fine, given extra juice of seperate battery as well fuel pump - changed tank and still wont start, fule pump sounds like it is doing its thing. Fuses - fine Side stand cut out annoying plug thingy - fine On off switch - on Spark plug ht leads - fine Power commander - lighing up as it should Starter - cranking away as it should ECU - seems fine. With throttle open, bike tries harder to start etc. Fuel line, changed last year - therefore new(ish) Could the fuel filter get blocked? Both coils done in Relays? if so how to check and which one ???
i had this a couple of years ago - turned out to be a wire from previous owners alarm (removed) that hadn;t been sealed. Corroded back to to the main wiring and the alarm was wired into the killswitch circuit. Well worth checking and also look at the large round connector block just inside the frame neaxt to the cam cover?
smilo which model is you have as this section covers 748 to 998 and those two have completely different ECUs and can suffer from different problems.
I would start by checking for a spark and if fuel was getting through, easy if you know what your doing not so easy if you don't. If its cranking over and you have no reason to suspect the ignition/spark then a few drops of fuel down the inlets can often help, if it starts then its the fuel not getting through the injectors for one reason or another.
