Z1000 wont start!

if u pull starter switch off and disconnect the terminal plug u should be able to test the switch operation with a test light or multi meter do the same with the kill switch

It was getting to that point and that was the next thing i would have done, but a good clean is all it needed for now!

Nice work, I was thinking if you could roll start it then it pointed to the starter button

K bike now lives.

I narrowed it down the starter switch not engaging so decided to pull the switch apart and have a look.

Got a microscopic allen key and a big deep breath and blew inbetween the spring which seperates the 2 connectors. lots of dust flew out and use the allen key to scrap all the gunk off.

Give it a whirll...... BANG off she goes!
So starter button was just blocked and corrided with dust and crap!

Close thread thanks!

Awesome Nick glad the Z1000 has sprung back to life again

how typical as soon as the bike is going again it decides to rain and make the roads all nice and greasey! Oh well still going for a ride anyway!!

That wasn't rain. It was just the sun sweating.
