Replace your right switch assembly on the handle bar. Your starter button is dirty or broken and the only way to replace it is to replace the assembly. Your starter button is a two position switch that both turns off the headlight to direct more power to the starter and activates your starter solenoid. Either the right switch assembly has become unplugged from the harness inside the head light bucket or a broken power wire is causing the system to not work. But most likely a dirty or broken starter button is the cause of your problems.

I have a 2004 Suzuki LS650 that won't start. Battery says it's charged . Has new spark plug. Gas is good. When I go to start it it does not start, and then the battery is low again.

You say the gas is good? do you mean fresh in the tank? Try draining the card floatbowl using the 10 mm headed bolt on the very bottom of carb. If you smell a foul odor there is varnish buildup in the carb which will require a complete fuel system/ carb cleaning to fix.

Problem with power to my Yamaha XVS 650/A V-Star Classic, it won't start?

hey Joseph,, have you had the battery load tested?? Have the CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) checked.. O'Reilly, Autozone, Advance Auto..etc can load test your battery... 12 volts only wil not get much done... you need amperage and 13.6+ volts...
