power than no power
ok so i have a 96 cbr900rr yesterday i went out for a ride came home and a hour later went to leave had no power. let it sit for a bit then turned the key and had power. now to day i have no power what so ever. and battery seems to be charged. what can it be?
Can you provide a better description of what you mean by "No Power" ?
Do you turn the key and nothing happens at all ? No lights anywhere ?
The lights come on, but nothing happens when you hit the "Start Switch" ?

From the brief description, it sounds like a loose connection somewhere. Remove the battery cables and clean the terminals. Also, follow the cables to where they connect to the bike, and make sure the connection is tight there.
Before any of that though, I would turn on the key, and start to wiggle any and all of the wires you can find to see if the power is lost again. if it is, that will let you know for sure where the loose connection is. Also, rock the battery around a bit. Sometimes, an internally shorted cell can cause problems as well.
but as IdoDirt suggested, a little better description of your meaning would be helpful.

when i turn the key i have no lights or anything. we checked wires and stuff we got it figured out we think its the starter sylinoid (how ever you spell it. we have power going to it but not out.
The Starter Relay Switch (sometimes called the solinoid) has a large 30A fuse in it. If that is bad or you have poor connections to it, you would get no power to the bike. It can be challenging to find that fuse sometimes. After that fuse, the power goes to the Ignition Key Switch, then to the Fuse Block to provide power to the rest of the bike. I don't have a wiring diagram for your bike, but power generally goes from the Battery + terminal to the Starter Relay Switch with a really large red cable. Then there us a Red and a Red/White wire that comes out. Both of these should have power on them all the time if the internal 30A fuse is good. Most of the Honda wiring diagrams look similar to this. Maybe yours is the same way.
Good luck.
Good luck.
