    I've had mixed success bump starting. My rs and zx6 were really easy to get going. Fireblade not so easy....maybe the slipper clutch? Was a bit tricky. The twins, especially the SP :laugh::laugh:....park it up and find some jump leads!

    Hope you get the problem sorted soon and get it running.

    Starter relay has properly gone or fuse in it has blown.
    Take off the seat fairing panels. On the throttle side of the bike there is a small round starter-should have a red rubber cap on it. Lift that. Check the fuse there, think it was a 25 or 30 amp one. Generally the main cause on my old one. I'll pop down later if you've not been called in?? Text/call me

    Had a bit of a look at it today, found an alarm box that looks pretty well wired in, and the battery has gone completely dead, so I connected my cbr battery up and could basically hear the alarm attempting to sound, I think that has been trying to sound and flattened the new battery, damnit!
    So got the battery back on the oximiser to try and get it recharged.
    Found a blown fuse too, so need to work out what fuse it was, and probably try to disconnect the alarm and see if that gives me any joy.

    Think you will have take that alarm off before you start because if it's an immobiliser your getting no joy if you have no fob mate

    Looks like this could be the root of all evil
    A quick google shows quite a few people having problems with this type of alarm system.
    If I can work out how to remove it I could well be back in business

    Follow the wires and look for where the black wire changes to a coloured wire.
    Cut the blacks off and join the correct colours back together.
    There will be 2 circuits that need connecting back up as above.
