help. tues night battery started to have trouble turning over firebolt engine ,by thursday it was no go.i have just fitted new battery and all works except no nuetral light or starter motor .any ideas ,all fuses good

I'd guess that if there's no neutral light, the bike thinks it's in gear, so no starter motor. I'd start with the neutral wiring, or even just loose battery connections

Does it turn over with the clutch pulled in ?

You've not accidentally knocked your engine kill switch have you?

I only ask, 'cause this guy I know...

Hi Maz, is it supposed to My XB12R won't, nothing happens unless it's in neutral (I just checked)

Does the key fit? You might be on the wrong bike, you have an XB12S.

Yes Mr. Bonz.......if the bike is in gear it should start with the clutch pulled in.

OK. It doesn't, but as there's nothing else wrong with it I think I'll just ignore it.
