You will likely have to replace kill switch, it is not designed to stop bike on a regular basis, only in an emergency

Battery cable

Check your earth? Do you get any lights when you turn the key? If not it will be the earth or a dead battery- recharge may work, might have dropped a cell. Hope this helps

When I try to start my 1994 WR250, 2 stroke, it takes a million kicks, or 3 or 4 good pushes down a steep hill, popping the clutch. When I do get it started, once it warms up it will idle, and start back...

Sounds like a combination of leaking fuel tap and old fuel.

When you park it overnight or longer, pull the fuel hose off the carb , and drain the carb bowl.
So when you next ride it, reconnnect the fuel line, turn on the fuel tap long enough to fill the carb, 10 secs,then turn it off to start the bike, turn it back on when the bike starts.
even if you replace the fuel tap this process can help.

When I push the start button the bike does not start. The key is on and the lights come on the turn signals work but when you push the start button you get nothing not even a click.Is it possible that...

I would check out a few other things first, a bad solenoid still clicks, How about the kickstand switch, working? Stuck on?, how about the kill switch? On? The bike will not crank in gear. Make sure it is in neutral. If those check out, then start looking at other things, like the oil level? The relay from the battery to the starter can come loose. The wires at the starter itself, loose?Corroded?. Anti theft device activated? Check it out, Hope this helps.

Bike won't start

the first i always check when a bike doing what your talking about is safety switchs side stand, clutch and neutral. If any are not working the bike won't start, lets say as example bike is in gear side stand is up clutch pulled in but the but won't start, if the clutch switch is broke or worn the the bike thinks that you want to start it in gear without the clutch and it won't even turn over. The other thing to check is you kill switch, sometimes you'll get dirt and it can hold moisture, cause rust

Starting fault

There are two safety switches that you may need to test. 1) Neutral safety switch- this switch is what tells the bike that it's in neutral and allows the starter to engage. 2) Kickstand safety switch- this switch will not allow the bike to run in gear if the kickstand is down. My initial guess is the neutral safety switch. If the neutral safety switch is bad, then you will not be able to start the bike with the kickstand down because the bike thinks that it's in gear (even if in neutral). This also may explain why the initial intermitent problem of not starting when warm since the metal contacts will expand and possibly not make contact when warmed up. Are you trying to start the bike with the kickstand up or down? If it were the kickstand safety switch, the bike would probably start okay and then die when you put it in gear.

I have a 07 Honda vt100 shadow spirit... Ran fine yesterday I parked it for about 3 hours.. When I went to start the bike later I pushed starter switch and NOTHING not even a sound.. Lights blinkers horn...

you may want to check the safty switch on the kick stand. if it is falty then it would not let the bike start. it would let everything else work though. make sure it is in neutral

Even though I am unfamiliar with your bike I will give this a try on the condition that You give me a "Helpful" rating or better. Like you, I am unable to comprehend pigeon English.

A spark plug can go bad at any time. Get a new plug. Put the wire on the plug then ground the metal side of the plug against the cylinder head as you press the starter button. Look for the spark. If no spark, check the side stand kill switch. It kills the engine so that you don’t start out with the side stand down. If broken or out of adjustment, it would kill the spark. Check for a broken wire at the side stand switch and coupler. Try moving the kill switch by hand. If that doesn’t work then wire a jumper around the switch to bypass it. Check the fuses. How good is the battery? Is the handlebar kill switch on? Check the operation of the ignition switch and all kill switches with a volt ohmmeter.
