GZ Marauder 125 wont start

[Dantas GZ]

Hi fellas, i bought this bike this month and it happened once and i took the bike to the garage. It had a new battery and new clutch and front break cables, and it was riding alright till know that WONT START AGAIN!!
What can it be? I dont know almost anything about bike to actually do something. I have read that it could be the
battery
alternator
battery draines or wires
spark plug
carburator air filter etc...
But what do you guys think ?

batteries have an allergic reaction to the cold winter months...
try some tlc. wit a battery charger...
and fight of the horrible damp wit wd-40...

Before panic, have you checked the kill switch, is set to run, the bike is displaying the neutral light or the side-stand is up, and the clutch is pulled in? Check electrical operation of all these safety features.

Fuel tap is main/off/reserve, check that it is set correctly, if there is very little fuel in the bike it may only run on reserve.

You need to describe the issue more clearly I think.

Does the starter motor turn at a normal fast pace or does it go sluggishly? If so, battery issue or power leak.

Does the starter turn over fine, but it just won't ignite? If so, something's preventing it from sparking. Therefore check the spark plugs are actually working. You do this by pulling the HT lead out and placing it against a bit of the bike's frame, then press your engine starter and see if a spark jumps from the lead to the frame. If the spark plug casing is a big thick insulated thing (if it's the same as the GN125 engine then it might be) you'll have to stick a bit of wire into the lead and use that to connect it to the frame for the test I just mentioned.

If there isn't a spark, then the problem could be the killswitch, or some other really niggly thing which I did solve on my own bike once but it'll take some explaining so I won't go into that.

If the engine is turning at a good speed and there is a spark, but it's still not starting, then it's surely a fuel issue. Carburettor may have a problem, or you just don't have enough fuel, or the fuel tap's closed, or you've stuck diesel in it by accident or something, or as someone else said it could be moisture in the fuel.

If you're pressing the starter button and nothing's happening at all, it could be the kill switch or it could be some other electrical fault which I have no idea about.

if i push the bike a can start it, it had neww battery not long ago

i dont know if the cold is doing so much harm that it wont ignite the bike.
because she's in the rain and ice every day but i ride it every day too

i think that its the alternator because when it gets a new battery it starts but after a while it doesnt, just pushing EEERRR!!!

or a battery drain, where can i look out for a drain ??

[Copycat73]

things that drain a battery include,

alarm immobiliser,

continued use of heated handle bar heated grips,

low engine speed
ridin slow in traffic wit head light on....&

continued use of brake light in dense traffic.

there are other things too but

you gonna need a volt meter / amp meter to test
there are lots and lots to choose from & cheap too.

Yup, totally pointless offering any more help until you get a multimeter, get the thing running and tell us what the electrical system is doing.
