Left my zzr250 in the garage for about a week, went back to start it and all i got was a buzzing sound. The buzzing sound has now stopped but i have 0 power. Neutral light doesnt even come on or anything.

Ive had the battery charged and the acid refilled but hasnt made any diffrence what so ever.

any ideas guys?

first thing I'd try is bump starting it...
also could be a short circuit somewhere draining your battery or a bad connection (or many other things)

Tryed bump starting it, ending would tick over then die about a second later

MATT, listento me!!!
take it down the dealer, it's under warranty! they'll pick it up too cos it's the bike at fault!

the dodgy sound was the ignition coil. the power was fine but it would buzz when i tried to start it. sent matt of to get a new one but he said they tested it and it was fine. when i put it back in there was no power at all. fuses appear fine though.
when jump-starting the altenator's fine but it doesn't tick over at all. as if the kill switch was on.

take it to the dealer
