How long ago was all of the new stuff done? And has it run OK any at all since all of the new stuff was done...or did it start acting up immediately after the changes were made?

Have your battery load tested and if it is good it probably is a loose wire somewhere. There is a lot of info on this subject already posted. Hopefully it's something simple.

What dose the pressure release do would that stop the bike grime starting
They relieve the cylinder pressure when you first crank it over. put you finger on the rubber nob in the middle of either cover and push down until you feel resistance then turn the key on and hit start the compression release should drop down.

If the new battery does not have enough cranking amps, you may need another? Or your CR's are sticking? A loose ground will give you fits as well. jm .02

What do you mean when you say it "looks like its overcharging?" . Have you put a meter on it?

If it just stops while starting battery is prob weak.

Slow down a bit Eric. He said it looks like its "Charging", not overcharging. Re read.

K..well fine let me rephrase my question what does a battery look like when it's charging? Haha..

My point is until he puts a meter on it we don't know. As you put could just be a weak battery.

Very little information.
1. Remove the spark plug and check the spark.
2. What modules are installed on a motorcycle?
Do what I say and write the answers.

That was my first thought also.:oldlaugh:


But I have to agree with Alexey, ECH, RIP, ESC? and is the unit circut breaker or fuse protected? Give us more info, is there spark, does the ignition have power?

Charge the battery with a charger and not a tender and do a load test on it, maybe the battery just needs a good charge since its new or there's a bad cell and a load test will determine that.
