If it is a K3 (you haven't said) try wiggling the wires that enter behind the headstock on the right (as you sit on the bike)

that green block packed up on me but it was dead on key, if his lights are coming on then i would doubt that would be the prob. its the reg/rec for sure replace it with a cbr unit!! *runs and hides*

rip it out, kick it down the road, and never bother with one of them again. Get a Xena alarmed U-lock or disc lock

Helpful - someone has a bike that won't start and your first response is this?

I never agree with anyone who says to rip out the alarm cause they are always the part at fault.
Had my alarm in one of my bikes since I bought it and its never failed(three yrs now) It would be my last place to look. I have a suspect reg rec problem on it at the moment, but I know the signs to look for on that one, but no way would I let anyone near the alarm, take it out and hit it with a big hammer, until I'd exhausted all other usual suspects.
Its very very rare the alarm is the culprit IMO.

Not that rare...

clutch or sidestand switch seem to play up if not looked after from time to time.
