Well it would appear my sv is a bit poorly, started fine last weekend but this morning the dash comes on as normal but when I press the starter it makes a click from the rear then all power is lost.
I thought it mast be the battery so put it on my battery tender all morning which showed it to need a charge but once full it still does the same?
Could it be the RR or one of my accessories playing it up?

a good condition charged battery should not loose charge in that short a time.

make sure that the battery connections are tight.

do you have one of those usb acc sockets on the bike per chance?

Will go check the connections, only got a battery tender lead, hotgrips both coming of a gizmo I bought of some dodgy Scotsman off here😂

Dead battery syndrome, I've had a couple go like that.Enough power for the lights, but bigger all else.

Panic over, school boy error. My negative terminal had come very loose, I suppose it's the result of a vibey engine but I'm glad it cost nothing as I'd gone into 'oh yet more money' mode after the lawnmower decided to let all its oil pass the piston rings
