bike wont start

i have not touched it since tuesday after doing 1000 mile over 4 days & not having any probs, not even after the off.

but now it is turning over plenty of life in battery but wont start, it had a service 2 weeks ago

After 1000 miles it's eventually run out of petrol.

Re: bike wont start

Sounds like either no fuel getting to carbs or no spark.Pull a plug to check spark,and lift tank,open airbox to sniff for fuel.Try opening the drain taps on the carbs as well to see what comes out,if anything.Take it you have checked the obvious usual suspects like kill switch,cut out switches?

Re: bike wont start

finaly got it going? dont know how

took plugs out & they were sparking, checked petrol i wanted to clean the petrol filter so undid it, & petrol leaked every where

put it all back together & she went?

not sure if i want to risk taking it on the AR though? i will see how it starts over the next few days

also just pushing it out of the garage hurt my ribs alot
