Possible voltage drop at solenoid/intermittent starting problem

[lordcannon88]

No, if you put the bike in gear while the motor is running and then put the side stand down, the ONLY thing that happens is that the "SIDE STAND" light illuminates.


Yes, of course, it goes through the ignition switch, but it does that just before it gets to the ignition fuse. If you want the ENTIRE circuit:

From the battery to the MAIN fuse, on to the ignition switch, back to the IGNITION fuse, on to the kill switch, through the starter button, on to the clutch switch and finally to the solenoid.

Since it appeared that you had power to all other circuits, I was presuming that the ignition switch was working and sending power to the fuse box, hence the original suggestion to start there.

Steve 2, Caleb 0. Haha. Your logic > mine. Thanks a lot, hopefully by tomorrow I'll know something.

Nobody's keeping score, we just want to see the video of your bike running.

I have been using stainless steel star washers on both sides of my connections especially the grounds. They dig in real good and should keep a good connection longer.
