Kickstand keeping bike from starting
Actually, you can bypass the switch.
The method depends on if the switch is normally open, or normally closed (electrical switch terms)
Once you find the switch, unplug the two wires from it, let them hang without contacting anything, and see if the bike starts.
If so, you can just electrical tape the ends of the two wires to insulate them, until you can get a new switch.
If not, get a paper clip, and connect both wires at each end of paper clip.
What you are doing here is using the paper clip as a jumper between the two wires.
Now see if the bike starts.
If so, you can join them (until you can get the switch replaced) with one of these:

Won't start when cold
The cold start valve could need replacing. Also when cold, condensate gets on the wiring causing it to run rough until things warm up. Try covering it up at night. Check your plugs are OK.

Have a Honda 2004 Silver
Well, what I can see regardless whether it is a new or old battery, when you put it on a charger that are not automatic, it would ruin your battery elements. You can take the battery to a battery shop and have them tested it. If it is still good then do you notice a clicking (cranking sound0 when you try to start the bike? If not then check your starter solenoid as it may not power enough the starter.
Cheers

No juice in bike with new battery
Hi I am Vortash common fault with this model bike was the ignition switch a quick test is put a meter across the the battery .. you should read 12 -13volts if the voltage drops when the ignition is switched it's usually is ok but not allways it is just a quick check sometimes it is intermittent now see how far the voltage drops if it is considerable chances are you have a short .. usually the rectifier or the starter feel the battery see if it is getting warm with the ignition on this will also indicate a short .. check for bad earth connections particarly from the battery to the frame.. Check all fuses in this country there was one on the main lead from the battery .. hope this helps regards Vortash

Hot Exhaust
The most likely cause is that the motor is running very lean. Make sure that all of the componets for the air intake system are connected and not leaking. This can happen if you have changed to one of the new high flow air cleaners like K&N. This causes the air/fuel mixture to have too much air and not enough fuel (lean). If you can adjust the carb, then make it richer.

I have a 2004 Honda
You can try charging the battery. It will not hurt anything to try. Batteries generally only last two years or so. It may charge and be okay for awhile or it may charge and not hold the charge for more than a day or two. It may simply not take a charge. I would get a new battery just for the peace of mind. Please rate my answer. Thanks.
83 honda silverwing was running fine. stopped and
sounds like a spark problem ,coils once the carbs load up it takes off and the extra fuel in the cylinder is not fireing so you get a back fire check the plug gaps and make sure it;s the right plug , then check to see what kind of spark you have if it's weak replace the coils
How do you turn off the Vmatic amber light on a
Press both the reset and mode buttons at the same time. Turn on the ignition. Keep the buttons pressed for 5 seconds. Light will start blinking. Release the buttons and the light will go out.
Honda 500 TRX fa6 has PS on the dash….what does it mean ?
The Power Steering has failed. There has been a factory recall for a suddenly failing electrical steering shaft, that could cause the rider to loose control. This does not have to be your problem but anyhow either the electronics or the pump failed. Error codes or messages usually have to be erased by a simple reset procedure or disconnecting a plug, after repairs are done.
