Daytona 675 won't start

Bike has petrol and battery good. Turn on ignition and all looks good. SIdestand up, bike in neutral, clutch in. Press starter and nothing other than a faint click. Has happened once before at a rest stop after a long ride. On that occasion bike started after about a half hour. This time the bike is cold - I just wheeled it out of the shed.

    Went out to the bike this morning and it started just fine. Whatever it is it is not a hard fault.

    Brand New Bike and know it wont start??????Just gives a light click and nothing.....Taking it back for a battery check.

  • cujo78 Feb 25, 2009

    I started it a month and a half ago just fine but today I tried to
    start it by turning on the kill switch, inserting the key and turning
    it to on, I herd the fuel pump getting primed ( I my friend likes to
    say, killing the hamster noise ) and when I hit the engine start, for a
    milisecond the started tried to crank, but stopped and the instrument
    panel 'rebooted'. After the panel comes backup, the oil and engine light stay on ( can't remember if this is normal ) and there is a weird
    humming sound that does not go way immediately. Going to call the
    dealer tomorrow.

    Hi my Daytona's fuel pump comes to life when it feels like. Changed it's relays but to no avail, when she does start she misfires could it be the actual pump?

    I have exactly same problem as Posted by cujo78 on Feb 25, 2009.

  • Anonymous Mar 19, 2009

    Same problem. Some times it starts others don't. Don't have a clue about the problem.

  • perillo Mar 19, 2009

    Turn key to on, bike in neutral, clutch in hit the starter and there is a click followed by the gauges resetting.



    Any solution?

Hi,

Two possibilities:

  • starting relay. This could actually be bypassed/jumped to determine if the starter motor will turn:
  • starter motor. most likely carbon brush.
Just a start, do postback how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and Thank you for using FixYa.

08 R6 dash lights on but will not start

All this effort to beat the system --- by pass the safety features --- why don't you fix what you have, return it to functioning status. You have already exceeded the cost of a actual fix.

Why does the 30 amp circuit breaker behind the battery box on my 1990 fatboy click once when i push the ignition button? The bike won't start.

Try to reset the circuit breaker. also check for an earth fault on the starter motor .If this is not a circuit breaker and is a relay, you should make sure everything is ready for a start, (ie : in neutral, sidestand up and clutch in and that the battery is charged.) the neutral light being "on" doesn't mean it is in neutral. I hope this helps.

I have replaced the coil, stater, and the brain and i still dont get any spark

You don't mention the year and model...but here are some general ideas.

Most Yamahas have various safety interlocks designed into the wiring system....typically a neutral switch, a sidestand switch and a clutch switch, a tipover switch and a kill switch on the right handlebar.
The design basically is to prevent riding off with the sidestand down....so if the bike is in neutral, the neutral switch grounds to light your neutral lamp and allows for ignition and starter operation.
Is you place the unit in gear...if the sidestand switch senses the stand is still down, it kills the ignition and starter.
If the bike is in gear, starter will not operate, unless the clutch is pulled in and the clutch switch detects this happening.
Tip the bike over and the tipover switch kills the ignition and fuel pump if it has one.

So...is the igniter (black box/brain etc) getting supply voltage...if not check the ignition fuse, and the handlebar kill switch .
Is the neutral light working....if not...try starting with clutch in and sidestand up.

I have a 1986 Venture Royal and nothing happens when I press the start button with a new relay and battery with the ignition on

The clutch has to be pulled to start the bike. The clutch safety switch may be broken.
Check the "run/stop" switch as well as the starter button

Will not turn over 2006 Triumph Daytona 675

Can you check it with an other battery if its was once under the 3 volts the battery is not good anymore. I think the battery had his best time.

Triumph Daytona 675

So I just had this exact problem about an hour ago. I wondered about the starter, crankshaft, etc. but discarded them for the simplest explanation: battery.
I'm sure you've all noticed how absurdly easy it is to mistakenly miss the steering lock and put the parking lights on. Odds are you may have done this without realizing (I must've even if I don't remember). Jumper cables are the answer.
If you've never jumped a bike, here's the skinny: 1) Make sure the car you're jumping from is, and remains, off. 2) Connect the cables as normal; black to black, red to red. 3) Let the bike sit for a minute then start her up. 4) If you can, take her for a ride to get the charge back up.
If this doesn't work, then you may very well have more serious issues. Hope this helps, ride safe!
