Alright, I bought an 05 with 18,000 miles a couple months ago. Runs great. Than a couple days ago went for a 150 mile trip, everything went perfect. Next day rode to the store and when i came back out it wouldn't fire. After 20 minutes it fired up and all was fine. Next day went to work died after 3 miles. Waited 15 minutes and it fired up again. Got it home after it died again now it wont start at all.
Heres what I have checked- battery at rest is 12.8v, side stand switch- unpluged at the connection by the tank. I dont know if this is normally open or closed, so I have tried it with the pins at the connection touching and not touching. Still no spark. Disconnected the clutch lever wires and put a fuse for them to make contact. Still nothing. The way it abruptly stops makes me think it is saftey related. Not thinkin coils because of the way it runs, running on all 4 when it stops.
When the key is turned on and the stop/ start switch is on, I hear the fuel pump click and the vboost servo calibrate, hit start and the starter spins, but no spark. I thinking loose wire......any help? Thanks
