I have only had the bike for about a month and it has always had a problem with it randomly not starting. It would struggle starting, like what it feels like when your battery is about to go dead. One day it started fine, I drove it to the store and when I came out it finally stopped for good. I have replaced the battery but it still won't even try and crank up. Can you help?
Could be the starter give it a couple hits and try it if it starts then it's your starter
The main problem with any bike that is not used on a daily basis is damp.This causes a number of problems .The main problem is corrosion . Brass electrical fitting get a greenish corrosion which is very much like you find on a battery terminal this causes bad earthing and electrical problems .A good earth on the frame from the battery is a must and plenty of W/D 40 or similar will normally help stop corrosion build up .Check all connectors are clean and free from corrosion build up .
If hitting the starter doesn't do the trick, open the bracket where the starter and the on/off switch are and clean the contact surfaces and check for loose wires. Also check the conectors on the starter relay, they may be dirty or loose.
