Loose connection.Main fuse.Kill switch.If you cant trace the fault best get a multimeter and find where the leccy runs out that way.

Default Bike rebuilt but no power?

Curvy does not have tip over switch.

Just to clarify; when you say 'no power' what exactly do you mean? Does it run but badly? Is there no electrics, or... something else?

I think we should be told.

Okay. Thanks for all the replies. I found the problem.

A fuse had blown and when i try to renew it just blows straight away. I see the spark!!

What can be causing this.

Thanks
Kieran

You likely have a short circuit somewhere. Have you modified or altered the wiring in anyway? Go over all your connections and make sure they are insulated and connected to the correct terminals etc.

Hi.

Problem fixed, it was a bad battery lead. I have power now but my starter button will not work. However power is getting to other things. Lights ect.

Stand is down and clutch is held in when trying to use it.

Any ideas?

Kieran
