jonnyc21 Report post Posted January 3, 2019 Did you make sure there wasn’t any water in the fuel? Might also try bypassing the bank angel sensor... might be shorted and if so wouldn’t let it start and stay running. Guessing you already tried the full throttle kickstart twice rest. Good luck.

scratcher Report post Posted January 3, 2019 Yea tried the reset. N ye think the bank sensor could be at fault..its started only fur a few seconds. But in reality i was using body spray not easy start..i will get some EASY START tomoro n give it a go..if i can get it to keep goin n keep sprayin it, it may pull the fuel thru n run on its own. I was thinkin it may have got a bit o water in the fuel some way but a doubt it..tank never went under.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonnyc21 Report post Posted January 3, 2019 Bank sensor will stop the bike if it’s tripped but I admit I don’t know if it stops the fuel or spark. If fuel then it could be the cause. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
