The xps bump a peice of piss,
I used to be able to walk and bump it
Another way that used to work on my xps, probably no good for it but it worked,
Stick it in first with the engine electrics on then start running with it in first and the bike will start chugging and the headlights etc will start lighting, then whip the clutch in and give it some revs. Used to work when regular bumping wudnt get it started when we had those 0 degree days last winter. ____________________ Past: '05 Peugeot XPS '99 Aprillia RS125 '94 FZR600R

thats the problem because im not getting any power to turn the engine when i use the electric start. i havnt checked the battery yet though because its just been for a full service and i was told that everything is fine in that sense. also i used to bump start when i first got the bike and like you say i could do it just walking along, but after this service it took like 20 attempts sprinting down the road to get it to kick in! |

sounds like battery flat try charging or replacing as for dificulty bumping try in second easyer than first but take it bake to garage if they just had it there mistake could be a bad one,(or something simple but stupid) ____________________ "WHAT DO YOU MEAN 100 MPH THATS IMPOSSIBLE Its chinese OFFICER."
