  • '95 GSX600F engine will not turn over

    Tried starting up bike, everything is clicking, changed out starter, alternator, starter solenoid, battery charged. Lights come on, don't know what is the next step to check, just want to get the engine to turn over so I can begin the cosmetics on it. Any advice will help

    Have you tried jump starting from a car battery? (make sure the car isn't running) You can also try bump starting it.

    You may just have a bad cable from the battery.

      Starter/battery ground isn't making enough contact is a possible reason.

            I have the same bike, and I also had problems getting her to fire up. A Sgt. told me to try spraying starter fluid in the Intake, I tried it, and It worked like a charm. Hope this solves your problems as well. Have a great summer!

              Did you load test the battery?
              If its not 13V is not good enough
              Try crossing over the contacts on the starter selonoid with a screw driver. If the engine turns over you found your problem.
              it will be a sub fuse or bad wire from the battery to the selenoid
              If it does not, then its the battery, battery connections or the starter
