My 2012 Honda CBR250 motorcycle won't start. Video link included?
So I previously posted this question but lacked sufficient information, so I'm reposting with a video link depicting the sound the bike is making.
At first I thought the battery was dead, so I go a new battery, and the bike still won't start. It has 250 miles on it but hasn't been ridden in about 9 months. I took the side panels off to see if there was anything obstructing air intake, nothing observed. All suggestions are welcome.
1. First battery went due to not being used or charged for 9 months
2. I must assume that you left fuel in the bike for 9 months. Pelrol/gas does actually have a shelf life which is nowhere near 9 months. In 9 months 2 things will have happened -
a. The fuel will no longer be able to be used in the engine
b. Particularly in small pipes, valves and filters the fuel will have turned into a waxy jelly like substance which is causing a blockage or maybe more than one blockage.
Drain the fuel system and dispose carefully of the useless old fuel.
Clean out fuel system.
- What does the smallest numbers mean on this speedometer? (picture included)? I have a 1979 Honda CB125S that has a speedometer with scale for MPH and KMH but there's a smallest number that are from 1 to 5. Would this be the gear shift numbers?
- My 1983 Honda nighthawk 650 won't start with the electric start? I recently replaced the ignition coils because the old ones were getting heat soaked and the bike would die, however now the bike won't start with the electric start it turns over fin and the starter sounds fine but it won't start occasionally it ll start when it's cold or try to but I've been having to bump start it in order to ride it. So what's making it do this? Could it be the kill switch? Or something else?
- Can you distinguish the motorcycle models used in this video? 4 bikes Yamaha FZR 600 is one of them Honda CBR is another Can't get the other 2, can you? Also what year range would you give these bikes? 93-96?
- I have a Honda HRX217 push mower. Backfired when trying to start it, now it won't start? It was running, then I shut it off to open and close a gate, and when I went to start it again there was a really loud backfire and now it won't start. It will sound like it's almost about to start but not. Then get progressively weaker each pull. I changed the spark plug and cleaned the air filter. Any ideas?
