Hi and welcome to the site,

Initially, if the battery has been charged and load tested to be good, then check the 30A main fuse. This is of course assuming that the bike is dead electrically. The main fuse would be located in the starter relay. To locate the starter relay, follow the cable from the battery's + terminal.

Good luck and thank you for asking.

Motorcycle Question about a 1999 Suzuki Marauder VZ800 running rough after it is running a while.

Question edited for clarity and typos.

I had a similar issue on a Kawasaki Z1300. It was caused by a fuel line that was routed very close to the rear of the cylinders. When the engine heated up it caused a vapor lock, so basically a gap in the fuel delivery. Backfires can also be caused by weak fuel delivery.

I have a 2004 Suzuki Marauder VZ1600. I was out riding last night and made several stops. When I stopped at my last stop and tried to start the bike it was dead. I put a jump box on it and it started right...

Most bikes require that your battery be in goo condition in order to run. They actually use the battery as part of the ignition circuit. So if your battery is completely dead it will drag your ignition circuit down.
Recommendation: Remove your battery, charge it and/or get it tested.

Secondly, if your battery checks out as being good, the only other thing I could think of it being is your charging system. That being comprised of a stator and a voltage regulator. These are semi expensive parts so, once you get past the battery check, I'd advise you to either get a manual for your bike, and some testing equipment (if your mechanically inclined), or take you bike to a reputable cycle shop and have them check it out. This way your not replacing good parts trying to track down the problem.

Good Luck.
