I have a 2002 Honda cbr f4i, its my first bike and I don't know much about it. I was driving with my friends playing when I hit a speed bump going pretty fast and it just cut off and won't start back up. After reading I think it has something to do with the fuel injector because when I try to start it up I hear silence when I turn my key when I use to hear a sound when the rpm needle went up and down. I tried to pop the clutch for a hour or two but it will sound like the engine rolls two or three times and dies like it doesn't want to catch. All the lights and everything work fine. Once again I don't know much about bikes and would like anyones opinion and advice, I would appreciate it so much. I have just recently changed the battery so I'm counting that out. Thank you again.

 

if you turn the key on do you hear the fuel pump prime? theres a senor on the headlight (tip over sensor) check the conection on that. than i would check the two big plugs on the cdi (the computer on top of the battery) and make sure they are pluged in good. hope it helps and good luck

 

No I don't hear it prime. And there is also a solid red light on the console

 

The FI light is always on when you turn the key on prior to starting the motorcycle. When it blinks is when you pay attention to it.

Check all your fuses. It's a common culprit.

 

Thank you for your reply's, you were exactly right. It was the fuse to the bank angle sensor. Thank you sooooo much

 

Aken, Thanks for the info!

 

Not a problem. It always sucks when it's something so silly and little like that, but at the same time a relief that it was a simple and cheap fix. Ride safe!

 

if it happens again, i would recommend you to find an instruction on deleting and shorting out the bank angle sensor

 

Why would you want to do that?

 

i'd say not a good idea riding at highway speeds and shutting off the bike .. or maybe crossing the intersection.. there is no much possibility imho , that could make something bad without the sensor..or am i wrong?
