Well its not starting because you don't have enough voltage. The most likely reason your battery is low is because your not charging when riding due to a bad rectifier/regulator, they go out a lot on GSX-R's. Had to replace mine 3 times already on a 2009 gixxer 600, they put them in a bad place and they get so hot they go bad.

ALSO CHECK TO SEE IF YOUR CABLES TO YOUR BATTERY ARE TIGHTENED DOWN. MINE DID THE SAME THING AND I WOULD TIGHTEN MY CABLES TO THE BATTERY AND WOULD START RIGHT UP

try your helmet lock. one way should release helmet strap bar one way should release seat.

These are the timing triggers usually found on the end of the crank...

Bikes don't actually have alternators. The charging system on a bike has a generator and a regulator/rectifier. The generator might cost you a little bit but the regulator/rectifier won't cost a lot. Chances are one of those went bad which creates a large power draw and doesn't allow your battery to charge. Seems like it's a regular occurance with the K1's. I would suggest getting a repair manual and fixing it yourself. Might take you a day or two but it'll save you a lot in labor.

Sounds like you have a short in the electrical system possibly around your fuze box. Best thing to do is to just pull off all your plastics and trace the electrical system, looking for exposed wires or damaged wires.

bike will not start or stay running on a full charge battery/bought brand new battery, still same promblem,jump bike off,will crank ,ride bike for 30 min. park bike, leave bike...

check the clutch adjustment

I had this problem before it turned out to be a bad coupling from the generator, but also check earths are good and tight and voltage check that battery to be sure.

Get the self check it might needed some repair or replacement

check pilot jets

Check your side stand relay the engine will not start if the Circuit is open . Pull relay and jumper across just to test. if starter turn over you got it.

Hi, you could try replacing the old parts, and check if the problem still exsists, it sounds like the bike is running lean with the new system fitted, addvise fitting a power comander to correct fueling problem and remaping the power comander to suite. Your exhaust application. Hope this helps. Paul

The vin number commonly known as the frame or chassis number can be found on the front tube of the frame, headstock to the righthand siide at this point the steering yoke is affixed, if this is a uk bike the vin plate should be on the righthand of the frame also,close to your. Right knee when you sit on the bike, but the number on this plate is the same as the one found on the frame, the engine number is located also on the right hand side ontop of the crackcase just above the clutch cover, all of this information can be found on the log book, or registration doc if you have one hope this helps

battery charge cud be low-must be at 12.6v--or connections are loose--relay may be bad--inspect all wiring for flaws and become a pro at maintenance -buy a clymer manual today

first look to see if a fuse has blown, secondly check the temp sender/thermostat. not sure where it is on your bike but either actually on the radiator or on pipework. locate and disconnect wiring to it. use a paperclip to bridge the connectors and run the bike if still no fan and fuses ok then you have a wiring fault and need to check with a test light or multimeter to locate the fault.

Your Suzuki has a fuel valve, it is an automatic valve and has no lever on it to manually turn on or off fuel flow. These valves are prone to failure from sticking and this causes the engine to run out of gas. The valve is located in the underside of the fuel tank, you must drain the tank and replace the valve to correct your problem, the fuel tank is secured at the seat end with bolts, remove them and slide the tank rearward to release from front slide in rubber mounts. Be sure to mark each hose and where it goes before you remove them, this is very important! Below is the part number and price of the valve and a picture. I will also include a parts site web link for the factory parts for your bike at greatly reduced prices from the dealer for most parts.

Is The side stand is in the up position the bike is in neutral, and the clutch lever pulled in?

FI stands for Fuel Injection. The fuel system sensors have detected a problem. It could be anything > a dirty air filter restricting airflow, a plugged injector, an error in fuel mapping, any number of things. Serious problems can trigger the computer to prevent the engine from starting until the problem is fixed. You will need to take the bike to a dealer to have them plug in a code reader. The code reader will tell you exactly what problem has been detected. There is also a chance a sensor has gone bad and is giving a false signal. Keep that in mind. Now determine if you want to do the fix or have the dealer do it. Please rate my answer.

OK check your OIL pump, this is the ONLY thing that can cause an engine to overheat, well that and NO OIL, so check BOTH. Also check the mixture isn't too lean if NOT the pump or no oil.
