Suzuki 2000 125 vl bike intermit. starting

with bike sitting take gas cap off to see how long it run. if it keeps running try a new gas cap if not that,maybe vapor locking

Check the battery terminals and it's connections it could be corroded with acidic powder, also check the starter solenoid switch and also check the starter button switch too..many atimes this accumulates carbon and thus fails. Check the charging rate of the charging system on your bike's engine. @idling it should show 13.8-14Volts.

new starter

Mine has the same fault. The ignition sensor leaks to earth when it is hot so engine cuts out. I've had two sensors fitted. But They still leak to earth. Trying to get Suzuki to sort, permanently.

Hi. Most likely, when your bike spilled the air filter loaded with oil. Check the filter. If it is oiled up replace it with a new one. J.

On the right side of the bike right above the right front corner of the front cylinder there is a small braided cable. This cable needs to be taught but not too much. This cable opens a port to relieve the pressure on the front cylinder to make it easier to start for that little battery. It activates when you push the starter button. If it has stretched then when you try to start it, sometimes it will start but sometimes it will crank really hard and click, just hot and cant turn over fast enough without this working.
Too bad you had to waste the other money on parts, / Simple fix with a wrench only, no parts needed. Now you have the beginnings of a parts shop.

You need to buy a volt meter and set it on 10, or 20 v-. Start the bike and see what it says. A good charging system will show 13-14+ volts. If the meter says 11-12 volts or does not change, you have a bad stator, or rect/reg. Take to a shop to have it further tested. Chaz Moto DC

If the gearbox oil is REALLY dirty it can affect shifting.The only other thing will be a shift fork going bad. Replacing a shift fork is not generally a do-it-yourself project. The dealer will charge $750 or more. Sure do hope you have dirty oil...
