Default Oh for god sake; dropped it, wont start.

Tried to ride off with the disc lock on!!

I have cut the clutch switch wires to short em, not that. Is there a tilt switch on the curvy?

As you can start the sv with the sidestand down anyway it cant be that switch?

Nothing at all from the starter, im waiting for my multimeter to arrive.

No tilt switch on Curvy. You've checked the kill switch, yes?
How long was it on its side? Unless just a brief period then it may just have emptied the float bowls.

Have you checked the relays, might be the starter fuse or something. Also have you checked that the starter switch actually makes a connection.

Did it get knocked in gear? If so, don't think it will start with the stand down...

checked fuses shorted all the switches, nothing. Im knackered trying to bump it too lol. I think its starter solonoid or relay. I think ill get it recovered home and then start on it in the garage.

Damn. Sorry to hear this- infuriating, isn't it?

Hope you get it sorted.
