have you checked compression on it, plugs out comp tester in crank see what happens, then a small amount of oil see if compression goes up some,

First, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY NEGATIVE TERMINAL!!!! Drain primary fluid, remove outer primary cover. On the bolt holding the starter gear on, flatten the tab on the lack washer, and remove the bolt. I use a flat blade screwdriver behind the gear, and hold it out to engage the teeth of the clutch shell to keep it from turning while undoing bolt. If you're completely removing starter, undo the wiring going to it. If you just need to move it a little out of the way, you might be able to leave the wires attached. Remove two bolts holding starter to back side of inner primary cover. Pull starter out, turning as necessary to clear.

what year SRAD if early one, the tensioners were sh?ty ig high miles cam chain may have stretched, chain tensioner may be worn out. where ya live,

what wont go off, have you changed the fob battery, or is it in sleep mode

If the battery is dead after starting then you have a short in the starting system. If it only starts when you jump it, and I'm assuming your using a car to do this, then it sounds like the starter is using an unusual amount of current to start and is defective. A shorted starter will drain a battery instantly, but make sure the positive cable is not shorted to the frame anywhere first.

your starter

Well you can just cut the wires to the ignition switch and intall a toggle switch. However, you will need a schematic to know how to attach the wires to the new switch.

When the engine is idling, the alternator is not charging. Starting the bike will drain a weak battery. A fast idle (1000 rpm or so) will quickly recharge the battery. If the battery is dead and the alternator is not charging the bike will not run. Check the connections at the battery. Remove and clean them. Check the main fuse and all other fuses. (The temp indication may be a false reading due to other problems.)

you tighten every thing up on it.

0 - 60 is 3 second in first gear, 0 - 100 is 5 seconds in 3rd gear, but you have to wind out 2nd pretty quick and power shift into 3rd. Don*t forget to breathe !!!

You may have some bulbs with burned out filaments, Or the bulbs may not be in correctly. Pry off the lens cover with a dime and inspect the bulbs. Make sure they have two filaments. If one filament is broken, replace it with a new bulb. Bulb #1157

check side stand switch is not staying open circuit

could be an inline filter inside the fuel line from the tank, this can block over time and totally restrict fuel to motor.

should have a sight glass on the lower crank case, gear lever side.

bad ground or switch, im leaning more towards switch. Cheap replacement

if opil was good and not in too long, be ok, really you need not change anything, start it, and let it run till hot wait to see if fan kicks in, check water first though, really mate should be all ok, where are you, u in UK

have you replaced the clutch rod and seal if it was leaking before it may be low on fluid ,did a small ball bearing come out of the hole when you removed the shaft and if it did ,did you replace it ,to bend a clutch rod there is useally a problem before that ,this maybe a good time to take it to your bike dealer for a inspection as there could be a underlying problem that will only get worse .i hope this helps

Sounds like the ignition switch thinks it is in the "park" or "acc" position. Could be an internal switch problem.

Chances are that the click you hear is the solenoid.. Try bridging the two terminals and if it turns its the solenoid. If Nada its the starter motor...good luck

Check the fuel, old fuel can degrade and become useless. Has the bike a fuel tap and has it gone onto reserve. Make sure the engine kill switch is in run position. Remove a spark plug and see if you have a spark by refitting it into the cap and touching the thread to the engine. Please use a thick glove to avoid a shock. Do you have to operate the clutch lever to start the bike my 2005 Suzi SV works this way. If you do have to depress the clutch lever it may be the switch that the lever operates has got sticky or failed.
