Help Honda cbr f4i won't start!!!
I bought a used Honda cbr f4i 2002 with 30k miles. Started up the bike and drove it home with no problems(15miles). Park the bike come out 2 hours later the starter motor no longer operates. When I press the starter switch for the first two tries it made a sound as a failed attempt. After those two tries nothing happens when I press the starter switch. When I hold on to the starter switch I hear a clicking noise by the rear. What is the problem? S:N The bike is due for a oil change. Was going to change the oil today, but I can't until I am able to start the bike.

Thank you David. I keep you guys posted up when the bike is operational again.

Look in the battery box and on your garage floor/driveway for them.
Also, if it doesn't use the nuts and the threads are loose, then that may be part of your starting problem. Battery cables need to be very tight in order to get maximum juice to the starter and other components necessary for a good start.

Nevermind that last question.(found a solution). Turns out the voltage was at 11.82(I charged it, not as efficient as it should be, going to replace battery). However, the bike still won't start up. It makes an attempt, but cannot get a kick. I am going to change the oil to see that would fix the problem.

Depending on which brand battery you use, there may be some small nuts that fit under the battery posts that the bolts thread into. Not too hard for them to fall out when you remove the battery and the bolts.

What's the problem you're having? You've charged the battery and tried it, but it doesn't seem to start, or it doesn't turn over? I highly doubt changing the oil would solve your prob.
