Sounds like a bad connection on the circuit. First place i'd look is the battery, after that takes a little more work but if you can trace the wire you should be ok.

Jake.
Before you destroy the electrics on the bike check the Clutch switch and the side stand switch. Remove the plug from under the clutch lever (look for it, its there) and bridge the 2 terminals of the plug with a paper clip or similar. If its starts better, then its the clutch switch. |
