CBR650F WTF?!?!?!

[KidCBR]

So I replaced a scratched right side crankcase cover(right engine side. 14 bolts. Clutch cable bracket on it) I own a 2016 CBR650FA I believe. It has full fairings. Gun metal black one. Now the bike just cranks and wont start. I hear the fuel pump when I turn the key. I recently purchased a new crank position sensor because a mechanic said that had to be the issue. I put that on(under the right crankcase cover as well) And sealed it again and STILL NO START. I am going out of my god damn mind here. Havent bent corners or cheated the reaper in A MONTH. NEW GOD DAMN PIRELLI ROSSO 2 TIRES. On a side note I have never ran a Pirelli tire in 25 years. GRIPPY!!! I. NEED. HELP. PLEASE.

If I had to guess, the crank position sensor is in upside down. It's easy to do, because it looks in better when it's upside down and the cover still goes on, but if you look at where it lines up, it doesn't. Just a guess, but I'd bet that it the issue; VERY common on the CBR's.

About to go out and have a go at it. This really feels like one of those "That BETTER NOT be the problem" kinda deals...

Let’s just say you are not the first, nor will you be the last, to do this!!! Why Honda continues to make them ”fit” either way is beyond me, but it’s beeen like this since the first 600RR in 2003.

Ask me how I know it fits upside down……

Glad its fixed
