    Hi everyone
    Just wondering if anyone can help. Ok I have a bonneville 865 SE it has been running perfectly but the other day I went to start it but it won't start? Everything else is working fine lights horn etc. When I press the ignition switch it does nothing not even click? I have checked the battery and it's fine. The engine management light is on but sure that comes up till it starts anyway??
    Anyone got any ideas?
    Cheers
    Mick

    check the wires at the clutch handle, I bumped mine and it came loose.

    @Mick62 you really have to check the battery correctly. There is a previous post on here somewhere that give the readings and voltage. Make sure the terminals are clean. And check the side stand switch and the clutch switch and around the wires on the headstock and ignition. Also the crank sensor goes sometimes and needs replacing.
