Bit of an odd one, sat on bike went to move it and assumed it was in gear as Neutral light wasn't lit, held clutch to start and nothing.. so fiddled with shit to no avail only to realise my ignition was off..

But what the hell my ignition was off, and even with steering lock on my starter button still turns the starter motor just refuses to start...

Any ideas?


Dunno about your specific bike, but that is not an uncommon feature on older vehicles. My old fiat could be driven away on the starter as there's not even a steering lock!

Has anyone messed with the wiring on it?

Mine never done that (although it was the 600)

I've got a mate (really!!!) who's divvy will run without the key in. He gets it going then just takes the key out. And it continues to run unaffected Shocked
