Most likely a broken harness between the ignition and frame. This is where to look. And this is what you are looking for.

Yes, the airflow meter would be the likely suspect.

are the pads free in the caliper coz if they drag they will fade ? are the pads worn more than half way as they will overheat !

It may be time to replace the brake fluid - there may be water in it which can be absorbed from the air. Also, be sure to bleed any air out of the system.

Is it this you are looking for?

The fuses on the F650CS (scarver) are located under the seat.... remove the seat first. Then look up near the RHS area usually covered by the front of the seat and there will be a small black plastic cover over top of the fuse box. Remove the cover to access the fuses.

If battery is completely discharged, you will not be able to push start your F650GS. The fuel pump needs to have power to pressurize the fuel system in order for the engine to run.

Best solution is to purchase a battery tender or other small charger and keep the battery in top shape when you have the bike parked.

Good Luck!

Your bike may have a clutch interlock switch that could have went bad

you have a charger thats kicking out 45 amps,,,just how much more do you need? i know the lady sayes she's cold, but realy???? why not strap a 2500watt jenny to it and she could have a kettel to make hot drinks on it as well as run the heated blanket and the **** warmer???? if you could put a bigger charger on it the motor could not turn it over, trust me,,, the only real way is ,,,dont ride it if its cold! or get some realy thick wooly knickers,, after all look at it this way,,,
have you ever seen sheep shivering??????
and there is nothing heated on them????

Use 10w40 motor oil in the gear box. Don't use any synthetic oils, oil marked "EC", or oil with "special" additives. Stick with the major brands; Pennzoil, Quaker State, Mobil or Shell. If in a hot area like Texas or New Mexico go with 20w50.

Increase the idle speed - knurled knob or screw that controls the raising and lowering of the carb slide on the side of the carburettor.
Check your spark plug as well - it will probably do with a clean.

Does it drop so low it stalls? How does the air filter look? How many miles on it?
