Hey guys and girls. I've got a 2016 T120 and a 2010 Bonneville se. I'm having some issues with the se. It was sat for 9 years. We flushed the tank and she started straight away. After a 10 mins run we stopped her and did a service so new plugs, oil and air filter. I also took out the neutral switch as she was leaking and renewed the washer. She's still leaking so a new switch is called for there. Now the bike won't start. There is spark but the plugs are dry. I took the tank apart and put a new filter in and tested that she's priming. Any ideas what's happened or how to get her going? Thanks Chas
@Chas83 Welcome to the family. Seems you went the wrong route. If there was any crud in the fuel it will be in the carbs and blocked them so a strip and complete clean will be needed. Do tap the upload a file button bottom right corner and show us all the bikes.
Can’t remember 15yrs ago if the fuel made it passed the injectors on mine if any of the safety interlocks were active, but from your post it might be worth checking the new Neutral switch is not the problem
Possibly there has been dirt that has by-passed the filters and clogged the injectors. If you can remove the injectors then crank the engine and see if fuel is being delivered. If the engine is cranking then none of the interlocks are to blame, including the neutral switch.
