That isn't enough voltage. It starts using the momentum when the starter cut power.Put the battery on a full size battery charger overnight and try again. Take it to an Interstate Battery shop and ask them to test it. Takes 2 minutes on the bike and you get a print out..
Not a good idea to jump start because of the dimunitive size of the motorcycle battery compared to your car or truck ... better to charge or replace the battery ... however, if you insist, the battery is under the seat. You will have to remove the seat for any of these processes.
Try this. Turn on headlite then try to start.Watch lite,if it goes real dim to off trouble is battery.If lite does not change,still bright,trouble is bad starter,or bendix or solonoid.Starter is not requesting power so lite stays bright.Don,t forget to check ground wires at battery and frame.You changed battery check connections.
hello and welcome
as i understand the vtx cranks but does not start. a good place i would start to look is the spark plugs. first you can verify that the plugs are not blackened over and wet. this would happen from fouling. with the vtx not turning over properly with the old weak battery alot of fuel was used in the cylinders and possibly fouled them out. ive seen that be a very popular problem. the other it to check for spark if the plugs appear to be fine. this can determine if something was faulted in the ignition.
