    Myself Dhanush, from India : Proud owner of the Street Triple RS.
    I own the bike for roughly 15 days now and its been great and the feeling is something that cannot be described in words.


    However,
    I just needed some technically information ,
    I have faced this issue of starting the bike up and the engine does not even crank[Sometimes] , it happened on the first day of owning the bike after refueling post delivery. Initially I assumed it to be an air lock due to filling up the fuel to the top and hence jump started the vehicle. But the issue persisted so I rode it until I drained a little fuel.

    The next day again I faced the same issue in the middle of the road when I had stopped for a short break, I had informed to the service team and reached the service center thankfully the engine cranked after 20 minutes break.
    The service team were able to reproduce the issue again but only once. The technician took it for quick spin and told its fine just continue using , it should have been the air lock.

    I rode the bike for a 2 days without any concern but then again in the middle of my bike ride I had stopped the vehicle in Traffic due to long RED stop , and vehicle repeated the same issue and now it definitely wasn't the air lock cause I had used the vehicle well. So contacted the service team and they obliged to pick it for service.

    The team worked the whole day and identified that there was loose connection and fixed it. They also updated the firmware and the bike was smooth for another 5 days.

    Now due to rains in my region I did not turn on the bike for a day yesterday, and today I faced the same issue.
    I do hear the Priming sound on the turning on the kill switch but when I try to start the vehicle , it does'nt even crank, it did not start for a while on multiple attempts.

    Did speak to the service manager , he advised to wait for a while could be the cold terminals.

    It started after a 30 minutes. And after that I have started the bike a few times it has not issues.

    Now just want to understand is this an issue / concern?

    Thanks & Regards.

    Welcome to the forum; I have not heard of that happening and this isn't acceptable to me on a new bike that you have just got from the dealers. I would ask them to have it back for another proper look.

    Sounds like a battery issue, ask them to put a new one in.

    they do suffer from hot start issues, but they’ll crank over no problem.

    the fact yours doesn’t do anything it’s the battery or another loose connection.
