Re: Doesn't want to start!
right so you turn the key in the ignition and go to start the bike as normal.
it turns over as normal (press starter and listen to hear if it is struggling)
but it splutters and coughs asif it is trying to start on one cylinder.
have you tryed bump starting it? my mates old NTV would not start unless bumped.
this is done by sitting on the bike, put up the sidestand and pushing the bike with you sitting on it. Then you stand up on the pegs, put it into 1st gear with the clutch lever pulled in. You drop yourself onto the seat whilst letting go of the clutch and pressing the starter button. the bike should fire. If you cannot get fast enough use a friend to push you and/or maybe use 2nd gear.
cheers
