Hey everyone!
I recently purchased a 2009 FZ6R. Shortly after I got it, it would only start when I hook up a jump box to start it. Even after running it for a bit it still would not start.
Senario 1: When I turn the key on I hear the the bike whir up like it's ready to start, but when I push the button allbi get is clicks. Before jumping it the volt meter reads 11.56v and after the jump it's at about 13.42v+. When I have the battery out of the bike, the battery reads 12v. I have noticed that when no jump box is connected the the solenoid will do a (click click click) sound as the battery dies down. So I'm a bit confused with this scenario.
Secnario 2:
All of my blinker work FRONT/REAR + LEFT/RIGHT; HOWEVER, my Right Rear running light is not active. I've tried replacing the bulb and no difference. I hooked up a Volt meter to that side and the current reads 0.15v when the bike is idling and when blinking it reads 13.54v+.
I traced the wire to the plugs on the right side of the cowl seat and swapped black/grey plugs to see if there's any difference and..... NOTHING!
PLEASE HELP! This is my First motorcycle!
