Right when I push the button to start the bike I get this like fizzing noise and the starter motor doesnt turn over, if you let go and do it again it will eventuially work. It's NOT thebattery and I noticed the noise is actually coming from the fuse box. Any ideas?

I know you said it was not the battery but but humour me, clean the terminals and then have a look at the starter solenoid contacts / earth and the starter motor contacts.

If you can make sure the noise is coming from the fuse box and not somewhere else this would help. Go out in the garden and rob a foot of hosepipe, stick one end in your ear and the other end will pin point the noise very acurately Very Happy

Yup sounds like the cold weather/moisture has effected the fuses/contacts. Check them all over, clean them up where neccicary and spray in some WD40. Thumbs Up

My friend had exactly the same problem with his ZXR. Green furry connectors, contact clean or wd40 will do it as DaFrostyOne said. Do em all.
