After an off the bike an't starting. Lights come on and the dash lights come on but when I turn the key to start it, it wont turn over. I by-passed the starter solenoid and it starts fine, it stays running when i start it this way, after turning it off it wont start though. also I gave it a push start and it started for about 3 sec and then cut off.

Is it the tip over switch and if so where is it on a SK5 2006 model?

:confused::confused:

No, tip over shuts fuel and has nothing to do with motor turning over. Check clutch switch.

when you say "doesn't start" what do you mean?

totally dead / just clicking from the relay/ turns over but won't fire?

was anything else damaged in the fall ?

the bike comes with 3 cutouts, the clutch switch, sidestand switch and the kill switch, have you checked those out yet ?

Cheers Mark.

When I say it doesn't start I mean that when I turn the key over and the head lights and dash lights come on, then I press the starter button, the head light dies down but the engine doesn't turn over. No noise comes off it. I have checked the kill switch and it off, the other two I must check.

Also when I drop it over, it was leaking fuel. I'll be checking out the sidestand switch and clutch over the wkend and i'll let you know how i get on.

Just had a chance to look at the clutch switch and that was the problem. Bike is working again, although its rough around the edges!
