Hey Guys. Bit of bike prep for saturday, blah blah. New filter, quick check for starting.

Cranking. Not firing. Fuse fine, Cold air thing open... Nothing.

Shorai battery in there–can I put it on a normal car charger if it's got the thing that turns it off?

It is cranking tho, so not sure it's that. Was last started 6 weeks ago.

If that fails, I guess I can still bump start it, bit of a pain tho!

Cheers!

You can use battery tenders from car battery to the bike battery. I've done it on a friends bike, gave it more power to crank over.

You can use a charger, but disconnect the battery cables or you may damage the electronics on the bike.

6 weeks setting is a long time. Check the fuel feed. Check to see if you are getting spark.

New fuel, filter, charged the battery. Adjusted air-screw. Nothing.

Bumped nothing. Bumped again. Nothing.

Ah well, no riding tomorrow. Hit the button one more time. Fires up.

WTF!

Seems fine, ride tomorrow and see how we go.
