im going out 2nite and its just been pouring hard with rain and now the bike wont start!!!!!!! what is wrong with it!?

anyone know??

[Davo]

Try putting in a bit more detail, what exactly happens, does it light up when you turn the key etc..?

It's quite possible water has got somewhere where it shouldn't, but without a bit more detail it's hard to tell.

[ken]

Possible water has ingresses into the plug area take ht leads off get hair dryer and dry them... and the plug area...

like said more details but if its after a water fall It limits it Oh and take petrol cap of and fill her up

Cut-out switch knocked to off position?
Water in the cut-out switch/electrics causing a blown fuse?

[b1g5m0k3]

the lights and indicators work and stuff and the dash lights up for a split second like its trying to start but it just wont

[Wafer_Thin_Ham]

Maybe your power band has gone?

Seriously though something a little more specific would be good. Do your lights, horn etc. still work if you turn the ignition on? Have you checked all your fuses?

yes all the lights work it just wont start

[Wafer_Thin_Ham]

Lights up for a split second?

Does the starter spin up and it not catch or can't it turn it over/ spin slower than normal?

no it dosent have a flat battery

[Benrly]

Turn the key, twist throttle 3-4 times, turn it off.
Turn the key, see if it will start up. Give it some throttle while holding the starter button.

If not, try the good ol' kickstart, or have you not got one?

[Wafer_Thin_Ham]

checked for a spark?

Spray everyhing with a mist of wd40, and make sure your battery terminals are screwed on tight. Mine always vibrate loose (should get some loctite on there really).

Scooters hate getting wet , what will of happened, is, water will have made it's way down the back of the clocks , I suggest sealing its up properly with silicone.
