2019 ktm 350 won't start

The_Diablo
Took the bike to the track the other day and it ran good. Went to start it up to load it and go home, and it wont start. Bike turns over but thats it. Changed the spark plug, that didn't fix it. Checked all of the connection and couldn't find anything out of the ordinary. I am running a vortex ecu, so I tried the stock one. Didn't work.

Bike only has 7 hours on it. Any suggestions before I take it back to the dealer? I think I'm going to get a new fuel pump, and try that.

Thanks guys!

I have a 17 that pretty much did the same thing. Bike only has 30 hours. Got a new fuel pump today and going to put it in tomorrow. I’ll let you know if it fixes it. Sounds like a common problem with these

If the problem is with fuel pump then you shouldnt hear it whir then you push the start button.
If its electrical fault then the FI light will blink fault codes.
If the FI light doesnt blink after trying to start then check if the airfilter is ok. If the airfilter let through dirt, then piston ring will get stuck. It will run, but as soon as you stop the engine, it wouldnt start again. This happned to my 350 2 weeks ago..

Inline fuel filter. Start with the easy stuff and these are known to clog.

Disconnect kill switch. Check to see if you’re getting spark.

Try a different fuel tank.

Make sure grounds are solid connected.

Check fuse.
