ok i have a slight problem. went to start the bike this mornin pressed the contact button an NOTHING!! its not turnin over at all it gave a little bip of a turn afew times an that was that. so... i took the seat off hooked the charger up (even thoe i charged the battery full afew days back an the alarm was workin) an it turned over a couple of times and started. so i thought great turned the bike off went to try an start it again an nothin. the only think i noticed when i hit the contact button one of the boxes under the seat buzzed so they must be workin im thinkin.......
Anyway does any of you gentlemen (or ladies) know what the problem might be?

could be a hole load of things, first thing id do is start the bike then stick a MultiMetter on the batry (on the +/-), rev it alittle and see what the Voltage across the to terminals is
If its anymore than about 16v then your regulator is gone.

you said if you stuck the charger on it would start? with the multimeter you can also check to see if the bat is holing 12v's or not, always a good place to start before moving onto things like starter solenoids ect

No i aint bumped it i tried about a month ago when i run the battery low hot start thing i guess but i couldnt get the bike to bump it wouldnt turn wierd but still.....
if the bat were flat it would try to turn you know that sound wom woooom wooooooom no none of that. even hooked up to the charger just one of the boxes under the seat buzz, its so annoyin. i hope it is a flat bat but i highly think not.

AH looked at it last night an i think its something to do with the button itself as opposed to anything else. basically i looked at it yesterday battery fine so i push the button an it buzzez again then i push the button hard an it starts now its not so bad???????????
Is it usual for the starter buttons to break or become cloged up?

yes they do but if your getting a buz then your getting a conection, again a multimeter would prove this by checking that its getting 12v's and that its returning 12v's

Yea i think thats it baz maybe its corroded inside ill give it a clean first then if that dont work ill try the multimeter rene.

ill fill you in how it goes on monday
oh the reason its buzzin is because i think its contacting but not enough hence when i pushed it harder it contacted properly
