My friend laid my 95 suzuki intruder 1400 down. Not much damage but had to get new battery and it just keeps cranking over. It has been sitting for bout 4 months with half a tank of gas in tank I have had my bike sit longer before and it still started with the same gas in tank.It started fine before. Any idea where i should check first?

Hi try with fuel starter can if start it's mean fuel not enough turn the fuel mixture screw half turn until get idel start located under throttle gate keep on try

The brushes in the starter most likely wore out.

must be battery that is goofed.

Did you check it under the seat?

either the battery has had it or you're alternator has. if theres no lights on the clock when engine running i'd say the battery was worn out. put a voltmeter across the battery before starting, should be in excess of 12 volts. start the engine and look again, should be up around 13+ volts, this will prove the charging circuit is ok. if the battery isn't faulty then you have a current leak somewhere, check all your connections especially alarm systems

try a custom tank building shop to see if they can fabricate one for you.

it sits for 2 years so you have to general check and clean everything, first replace the battery, spark plugs oil filter(if any) have your oil change, clean and balance your carburator and air cleaner, remove your gas tank empty it and clean use new gas, if you can spray an WD40 on all wiring socket then start the bike

possibly but check your battery tems and cable first. is the the motor turning over when it doesn't start? if not check clutch switch also.

Hey Joe ! Batt is either behind one of the sidecovers or under the seat. Start w/the sidecovers. Remove red and black wire from battery and pull it out. Make sure new batt has been trickle charged overnite...reinstall is opposite of removal, make sure red wire is on positive+ and black negative- Good Luck to you friend....tim
