Well today is a nice sunny day in nottingham and unlike some of you i wont be out on my bike today as unfortunatly its sat in my garden in bits as still got no spark im starting to lose all faith in it now as ive replaced the cdi unit,coil pickup,plugs,wiring loom and afew other bits is there anyone that knows what else could cause this bike not to start please

Mine decided it would not start after many weeks of pampering, turned out to be the starter relay on the junction box, if you have access to another junction box fit it and see. Mine clicked slightly on the starter button and then nowt. I was very fortunate and had some very much appreciated help with locating the fault, seems the relay can just pack in for no apparent reason??? Worth a try.

do you have a multimeter and the electrical diagram from this site, you need to check that you dont have any breaks anywhere, the ignition system for this bike is fairly easy to trace for continuity breaks.

you have your wire that goes from the -ve terminal to the engine dont you?

if you have replaced all that you say you have, and it still doesnt fire (does everything else work with ignition set to on - fuel pump, starter relay/motor, lights, horn, brake lights, neutral light, indicators?) its gotta be something simple, like a damaged loom. have you checked that your lockout switches are not interfering with your bike, there is a clutch lockout switch as well as a starter switch.

on my fzr these allow the bike to fire (if disconnected) but not go into gear, i cant remember what they are like on the zxr, i always remove mine at the earliest possible time.

incidentally i had a good ride out with the missus today, went for a wander around leamington spa, nice place, but expensive.

leamington spa

I lived there for a year, Me and my cous had The Town House pub at the bottom end of town by the river.
A year was long enough, Leam is very incestuous....

Yes everything else is working fine ive been told by a bloke that builds bikes near me that the contacts on the kill switch corrodes so that is my next port of call so thankyou for all of your help much appriecieated
