Re: BIKE WILL NOT TRUN OVER !! HELP !!
Ok, is this your first bike? if so then please please make sure you dont have the engine kil switch on..... If thats not the problem, i had a few teething problems with my new zxr the other week when i bought it, first thing i did was take the battery straight out and charge it. If your battery doesnt charge then try jump leads from another bike or car, failing a lack of leads then try a bump start, not sure of your level of knowledge, but if you dont know how then just check wikipedia or something. Also it does have petrol right? and the petrol tap is switched to on? As i managed ot do that yesterday, started the bike with tap in off position, used up all the fuel in carbs and cyclinders and then it died until i swtiched the tap on. If none of those work then get back to us with more details such as the noises etc. Also does the bike try and start or just nothing at all?

Re: BIKE WILL NOT TRUN OVER !! HELP !!
.Thanks for the quick reply.
Yeah ive done all of that and its still not working.
the noice is a buzzing noice from the fuse box. all fuses are ok as i check them The noice still happens even as the jump leads are attached to a car. i am a mechanic and dont normally get stuck on an engine problem but this one has thrown me but i do normally work on cars.
Please get back soon.
Thanks for your help.

Re: BIKE WILL NOT TRUN OVER !! HELP !!
Sounds like a solenoid problem. Can you hear a tick by the seat area when you press the sterter button?
Starter solenoid is on the left hand side of the bike. If you take off the rear panel there will be a rubber housing attached to the subframe about half way along, the starter solenoid sits in there, there will be a couple of wires going into it.
Pull it out teh housing and tap it a few times with the back end of a screw driver to free it up. Then try starting again. Try this a few times and it should go. (if it is a problem with teh solenoid that is!)

Re: BIKE WILL NOT TRUN OVER !! HELP !!
Id check the battery first of all, make sure its charged, if it still does the clicking sound after you have charged it then yes it may be the starter solenoid.
There is a test you can do on the starter relay

page 15-23 of the manual.

sounds like somethings shorting in the fusebox, strip it down.
Don't forget people there is more to the zxr400 than this forum... check out www.zxrworld.co.uk also.

Re: BIKE WILL NOT TRUN OVER !! HELP !!
mine used to click a little, was a dodgy connection on the starter button.
did it start ok when i picked it up the other day?
also, i presume it starts ok when bump starting the bike?
must be something simple if it was ok the other day.

Re: BIKE WILL NOT TRUN OVER !! HELP !!
