    Battery died on my 2018 XRX after not being ridden much this winter. Brand new battery and engine will turn over but not fire. Fuel gauge says empty but there is plenty of fuel. Any suggestions?
    I have tied rocking the bike from side to side to get the fuel sensor to register petrol.

    Is you new battery fully charged? I know it may sound stupid, but could be that simple with modern bikes.
    Not sure the fuel sensor prevent from starting if you have fuel in the tank.
