start

Started bike up first start after winter, fresh fuel and charged battery...started fine. Exhaust pipe caught my attention with some smoke, but before winter I applied a spray to keep it from rusting, sprayed in on exhaust, engine casing etc. can anyone put my mind to ease that this is normal and...

I probably fucked something up. I changed the air filter recently, removing the tank, etc. After putting everything back on I started the bike for about 20 seconds to confirm it runs and it was fine. Then, after sitting for 3 days I went to start it, it started for half a second then died and it...

Hi everyone first post on the 650 community. I have had the pleasure of owning 2 CB650R (2022 and 2023) which following a cold start and application of the throttle can get stuck at 4000rpm. I doubt it is a mechanical issue as both bikes have done this and have both been examined by my dealer...

Hi guys I’ve got a cbr650f 2016. It’s been in storage all winter. I’ve charged the battery and taken it out for a 3 hour run. I stopped to pick something up at a shop and was in shop for about 10 mins came back bike wouldn't start. It turned over then just died. I have a mobile jump starter...

Hey, Lost my keys for my bike in which I have replaced the ECU and ignition switch. But unable to get the bike to start. HISS working correctly. Check engine light on. Bike stuck in natural and will not change into any gear. Just asking if I have to reset anything. Existing ECU AU...

I fitted an Akra to my 22my 650R. Started her up and after a few minutes gave her some revs but as soon as I released the throttle the engine died. Took a lot of cranking to restart…. Since then she’s been running fine but can’t understand what would have caused this. Is there some ECU learning...

Good morning all, This is going to be a running post over the next few days/weeks of what I am doing to troubleshoot and get my 2018 CBR650F running again. If anyone wants to chime in the by all means feel free but it's mostly just incase someone comes along later they can see what I did...

I changed out the crank case cover and now it won't start. Powers up and turns over. Battery is fully charged. It ran just before the CC cover was changed. 1st attempt may have been low on oil after the change. Rechecked CKP sensor connection from the crankcase. Checked the signal from CKP...

Hi all, My bike was in the garage for 6 days, took it out and it has trouble starting. Managed to get it to start with holding the button and full thottle but took a few attempts. We think its due to the cold as it's been around 5 to -1 celcuis. Would it be because of moisture too? Are there...

Hey, so the other day I was riding back home from work about a 20km ride, nothing notable happened, I got a check engine and my traction control light came on as well as my temp gauge blinking with full bars, I stopped the bike for a couple minutes and started it (check engine still lit) I rode...

Every once in a while a start from cold takes up to 2 or 3 seconds of cranking for the engine to fire, and it seems to be happening more often lately. Is that normal variance or should it always start up within 1 second? My MT03 always started up nearly instantly. I am assuming this bike takes...

Hi, thanks for help with past posts and looking for advice here. I did change oil spark plugs over winter, bike was running good, but week ago I just could not start the bike. Got time now to take it apart, I see the park plugs are firing, gas goes in , pump is workgin, air gets in , but seems...

I heard a whine and click earlier from the starter and tried the flooding procedure a few times with no luck, then the clicking stopped and I recharged the battery and now nothing happens. Any ideas?

Hi all, I have a 2018 CBR650f, 18k miles. The bike had a rough life before me and I’m trying to work out a few issues with it. Recently I replaced the timing chain tensioner as before the bike had a bad rattle at 3-5k rpm. Now with the new tensioner it went completely away but a new issue has...

Ok. Just bought the bike. 2019 it had been tracked by the previous owner. I’ve noticed that it takes a little longer to start up than what I presume is normal. Just went on a ride, 10miles. Turned the bike off and went into a restaurant came out 5 minutes later to move the bike, but when I...

I bought a used CBR650F 2014 with just 3k kms and I still didn't service it , but it all fluids are there and I checked their level and they are in the accepted range, except the coolant fluid I think it's empty. , because I can’t see anything between mellow and high and I opened the cap and...

Went to my bike today and when turning ignition on it didn’t make the usual noise as the dash starts up and then nothing when go to start the bike. Also noticed that my gear indicator didn’t activate. Any ideas before I start taking fairings off to have a look? I don’t think I have dislodged...

Honda CBR650F Hive mind I need help please 🏍️ We started fitting an HM pro quickshifter then realised my bike wouldn't start - it turns over and i can hear the fuel pump prime so stopped and have been going through possible causes, I've put a new battery on it today just in case but only turns...

So today I went for a morning ride out in the country. As I was heading back home, my 2021 cbr650r did overheat and the heat bar was in the red zone, I noticed this after the bike had shut down one me while riding. I stopped safely and waited for it to cool down, which it did but now it won’t...
