10 Simple Reasons Your Motorcycle Won't Start & Battery is Good

I show you the 10 top reasons your motorcycle won't start even though the battery is good.
A low battery voltage is the No.1 reason your motorcycle is hard to start so check this first.

Other issues could be faulty stop start switch, blown fuse, side stand switch, clutch switch.
Old fuel or a blocked air intake system could also cause problems starting your motorcycle.

Update to the video - Chinese Predator engines have a low oil level sensor. Some modern motorcycles have a tip-over protection switch which could get stuck or go faulty.

Extremely to the point with information.

Nowadays to get one piece of information you have to listen to a four or five minute of video. I really applaud this gentleman for getting to the information fast, being descriptive, knowledgeable, informative and right to the point!

Thanks for great information and leaving your ego out of the way!

Got my dads old Yamaha SR250 and I'm planning to get a motorcycle license this year. Just for fun I tried to start it, but it just hums and no running.
Finally a video that tries to explain some faults. Will be looking into it!

Thank you so much!! It was the killswitch being funky. A couple switches back and forth and good as new! Appreciate it 😮

Here's a short story maybe you can help diagnose but I was riding to school and didn't have time to go to the gas station so my bike was near E on the gas gauge. After class was over, I went to the gas station and filled it to the full line. About 5 minutes later my bike shut off while riding on the road. I still had power. It cranks but won't start the engine. I went home and spent about a month trying to figure out the problem. It's not fuel related because I tested the fuel pressure at 43 psi and 10 seconds 400-500 mL of fuel comes out. In the manual 220 mL was the minimum. I change the fuel pump filter and gas is cleaned. I hooked up an external pump and that didn't solve the no start problem. I changed the fuel injectors filter (basket) and tested for spray. I changed the spark plugs and injectors. I see the spark plug has a spark when firing. That means the stator and crankshaft sensor is working? I heard about the low oil sensor which prevents engine starting so I changed the oil and oil filter. I have a battery charger I used to hook up so it's not battery related. Could it be a bad ECU? That cost about $500 for a used one and I don't got the money for that. Also I'm looking at camshaft sensor next and will use a multimeter to test that. I can crank the bike but it keeps cranking over and over again. The bike won't start but it sounds like it wants too.

My motorcycle Bajaj Boxer 125 cc will start then switch off, is it fuel or the battery?

[VegetaPrinceOfSaiyans]

Hey, have a bike that sat out for quite a while in florida while i was away, got towed, etc. I got it back and it's cranking but won't start, i drained gas and put oil in and replaced battery. The spark plug was changed before i left but that was years ago. I'm going to just get a new one in case, but any other ideas?

Hi I have an MT-125 2015, got a new battery (as old one was dying) and everything is working (bike turns on, indicators, headlight and back light work) however the display/dashboard is not working, just blank like it’s got no power, it was working with the old battery before we changed it however now it doesn’t work with the new or old one, any ideas please? Thankyou

[kenheijkoop]

I have a question. My bike isn't starting. When I turn the key, everything goes on, lights work. When I try to start the bike, the bike seems to reset and all the meters/check engine stuff does the same when I turn the key. Any ideas?

[JohnBautista-mkys]

I turn the key over I hear the fuel pump priming and lights turn on, I took my bike apart and set my battery aside for 2 days on a shelf (wood) what could be the problem no ground?

[AyumazHD]

My new bike Triumph Street Triple 765 RS my 2023 (350km) doesn’t start at first try sometimes. Do you think battery issue?

[GsxrMane]

I turn the key and it turns on and off the brights anytime I hit the button. I have all power just won’t start

[rvnsuki]

I have that Grom clone. It was riding fine though I had stalled it a couple times, but the day after it wouldn't start and I charged the battery as well. I do not know if they have safety switches or anything.

[samurai]

I have a mt-125 the bike will start and then just slowly die and completely stop any help?

[baileycousins]

I have a braaap 125cc superlite and when I turn the key I just hear a buzzing do you know what this issue could be ? Thank you 🙏

[pineapplesrawr]

I dropped my 2007 Honda cbr125r on grass going like 10km and now it won’t turn over

[rabbychan]

Mine won't start today, this is the 2nd time in a short time.
When I jump started the bike first time, it started up immediately after that, now a week or 2 later it happened again.
Oil indicator lights up when I turn the key but when I wanna check the oil level of my mt07 I don't see anything, so either it's too full or empty?

This is infuriating, I barely ride in the rain, haven't even done wheelies yet and already have to deal with this stuff.
