2001 Suzuki DR-Z 250 will not start

Having electrical issues with my 2001 Suzuki DR-Z250. Put a new battery in and it won't fire up? Trickle charger indicates the battery is at full charge? The bike will kick start but I am too old for that system. Is there a coil? What should I look at first and where do I find that? Not a mechanic and don't have transport at this time to take the bike to anyone. Any tip would be appreciated.

SOURCE: Battery on 125cc Suzuki GS is ok- but not being charged

You need to have stator coil tested.
An alternate problem could be the regulator/rectifier.
Both of these should tbe checked by a dealer

Hi
Sounds like someone has customised your bike - does it have a RH switchgear?
there shd be 3 connectors for the RH switch in headlamp - a 3 pin & 2 singles, the 3 pin has 2x orange/white + 1x yellow/green, this connects to 1x orange 1x orange/white +1x yellow/green wire which are for the kill + start
The singles are 1x orange/green + 1x white (loom side) which go to 1x orange + 1x white respectively, these are for the brake light
If you are keeping the kill sw then its only the yellow/green wire that can be discarded.You can also follow it back to the starter disconnect sw - junk that - keep tracing it back to the starter solenoid & junk that too. If you want to keep the electrical accessory output terminal then connect that straight to the battery or to the orange wire from the ign sw to the fuse box. You can also junk the thick wires from the solenoid, 1x to batt + 1x to the starter motor
You can junk the starter motor too ( 2 bolts then pull away from sidecase & up at the rear) but make sure you block the hole up!
If you want to bypass the ign sw then disconnect the 4 block from it & jump the red to the orange & also the brown to grey (for lights etc)
Good luck & ride safe

Check for a short, or partially broken wire between CDI and coil. If your wiring is goodbetween there, check between CDI and pick up.

2007 Suzuki 250 quad battery is dead doesn't have kick start. Had it on trickle charger for four days still dead. Can I use a jump starter on it if not what are the recommended battery replacement

Hey Michele,, if the original battery lasted this long.. you are lucky,, just replace it. >>> Always use the exact replacement battery<<<<... your quad is designed to take the exact size and amperage rating,, trying to change this is inviting too much trouble,, When you get a new battery,, it will be charged unless you purchase one online that comes with the acid pack,, EITHER WAY - put the battery on the trickle charger for 48 - 72 hours BEFORE you use it.. This will extend the life of the battery a bunch and make it a stronger battery,, ..(this is from too many years of experience.)

I have a 2002 drz 250 , and have no ignition

Jumpstart is no better than kickstart, unless you have a long hill....

Try rocking back and forth in gear with the sparkplug out, starter clutch may have caught midway.

Blowing fuses when just power on indicates a short circuit.

Check for sloppy wires or piching around headstem and tank/frame.

The site link below has your bike in exploded view sections with part names for your assistance.

Cheers.

My 2001 vulcan 1500 will not start. the indicator lights work but when i try to start it all lights go out for a second then come back on again. battery shows fully charged on trickle charger.

Measure the voltage on the starter side of the solenoid with the kill switch ON and the key ON and the starter switch PRESSED - trans in N. IF it is not 12 volts, it may be faulty.

My 2001 Suzuki DR-Z250 can't shift from 2nd to 1st without getting stuck in neutral.

You have a bent shift fork. The gears themselves are fine. Only one shift fork needs to be replaced. Stop off at a dealership. They will confirm my diagnosis.
