About a week ago the battery went dead. I charged the battery a couple of days ago and went to put it back on today, the engines turning over but its not firing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated Thumbs Up

Could just be your battery is knackered and needs to be replaced. If your engine is turning over sluggishly, even after charging it might point to that.

Sometimes bikes with electronic ignition can be a bit sensitive to low voltage, and when you crank the engine on the starter it can pull the voltage down beyond that critical point.

What Phil said is prety much spot on. If it was starting fine pre flat battery it could be that yours is fooked and you need a new one.
