Won't start in when in gear


Recommended Posts

My 99 RSV will start fine in neutral. But will not turn over when in gear with the clutch pulled in. Clutch slave was just rebuilt if that would make any difference. What are the things to check? Kickstand switch? Other?

Thanks,

Ross

It could also be the clutch switch. If it doesn't recognize the clutch is in it won't engage starter

(EDIT) Above applies only if in gear)

If it is in gear it won't start with sidestand down period...unless the switch is faulty.

Mine will start in neutral with side stand down or up, pretty sure. I know for sure it will start with bike in neutral at any rate, I do it all the time. Just for grins, make sure you check the kill switch on the right side. I have barley bumped mine and it looks like its OK but really its got the bike shut off. Reset it just for fun.
