will not start, there is a clicking noise
my 94 cbr 600f wont start, i heard a clicking noise coming from the starter solenoid so i changed that but it is still the same. does any 1 know what it could be plz?
i tuck it out and when i got bk it just wouldnt start again, i checked the fuse on the soleniod and its fine all the other electrics are all working fine, i have tried it in neutral and in in gear, it started up when i bumped it and the clicking is def coming from the starter soleniod/relay
just a longshot and I HOPE this is not your problem, but pull the stator cover off and see if the intermediate gear is getting jammed due to a broken boss on the stator cover and engine block... although rare, it does happen
If it was my bike I would be praying that the magic 8 ball is right and I would try another battery before digging into the solenoid. (most motorcycle shops will have a shop battery for testing purposes... hopefully you can borrow another bike battery from somewhere.)
It's probably the battery. The clicking is the solenoid shorting the battery to the starter, and the starter doesn't have enough juice to turn the bike over. No noise, no start is probably something else, intermediate gear is a possibility (I had that problem, fixed with JB weld and saftey wire!), as is solenoid and starter. Simplest thing is a battery. Put it p to a car battery even, if it doesn't kick over with that big low resistance battery then something else in the starting system is dead. How's your charging system? Still have the stock R/R? That'll eat batteries, and cause your problem on a regular basis.
