Went to start up my '03-05 R6 last night, never had any problems whatsoever with it

Turned the key as normal, it was halfway through the bleeeeeep noise that it usually makes when it just stopped dead. Everything went off like I'd just chopped a wire in half and then it failed to turn on again

Similar to what I believe would happen if the fuse blew

Now it won't start and I don't know what to do

I tried to bump start it but with no luck

Please help

Check a fuse.

Cheers. Everyone seems to think it's a fuse

How would I go about doing that? Anyone know what fuse it requires? Big job or easy change?

Anyone know if that'll do as a replacement?

1) Find fusebox.
2) Remove the first fuse.
3) Check the fuse that's in your fingers.
4) If popped, replace with appropriatly sized new fuse.
5) If fuse not popped, replace and return to 2).

And slightly less sarcastically, if all electrics are dead check the main power fuse which is often seperate to the fusebox. They're generally 30 or 40A.

That could be the cause, but check that the tyres are at the correct presure.
