sh*t! bike won't start

[ikeyfaz23]

just riding home and it just wouldn't respond all of a sudden then cut out and wouldn't start, leaving me pushing a nice 180kg 125 for a mile.

extra info(might not be relevant at all?)
- bulb on speedo clock went
-battery fine
-it happened after me fairly giving it some on way home(rushing)

before anyone says it i didn't have kill switch on or out silly (not this time)

any ideas appreciated

Is it a chinky?

[Commuter_Tim]

Which 125 weighs 180kg? that seems hefty, no?

I figure it only counts as extra information if you give the basic information first.

A "sh*t! bike" doesn't help us much in providing you with the help that you need to get your problem fixed however the model and year of the bike would.. also if it's new or second hand may help.

Follow the wires from the sidestand switch to where it connects and disconnected them, cable tie the loose wires or remove the side stand switch entirely.. if you still want it on then dose it in WD-40 and try to start the bike again (could be wet inside or shorting out).

Side-stand switches cause more problems than they do help, one rain storm or bad weather and problems can be had especially on chinese bikes.

Also please be sure that you haven't drained the battery in your attempts to get it re-started, and make sure that you haven't attempted to start it to many times and flooded it.

Leave the bike sitting and attempt to start in the morning with your usual start up routine that's when you'll know if there was a one of glitch and it was a panic on the roadside that prevented it from getting going again or if the issue is still there.

General rule of thumb I use;

- Don't hold the starter button for more than 5 seconds
- Be careful how many times you attempt a re-start (as with flooding fuel above).

What's your engine oil level at?

As A long time Hyosung owner, I can offer the following.

Side-stand switches can be in place and look in good order but not work.
I know this by experience

I disconnected mine and inserted a loop and my bike has been working fine since
