just checked it and the blk pin comes out when i clutch it and goes in when released...

Did your clutch lever get bent? Or damaged?

Hmm... :scratch is the fuel pump priming when you turn on the key?

 

[phengm3]

i dont see anything unusual. the pin goes in when i release the clutch and it comes out when i clutch it..

 

[phengm3]

the tip of the clutch broke off and the lever is slightly bent, but not that bad. and the fuel pump sounds normal. When i turn the key.. i can hear the valves opening or something, but when i try to start it, no noise at all

Just for shits and giggles, try unplugging the clutch safety switch and connect those two wires with a paperclip or a wire and try to start it... Maybe the bent clutch is just not releasing that pin quit far enough

Are you trying to start it in gear? Is your stand down?

 

[phengm3]

you are the man!!!! it starts up. thanks alot for your help. i will def hit u up with any more tech questions.. and thx moto joe for your help too...

Get that FIXED properly ASAP. Get a new clutch lever. The bike will run fine with it jumped out. But it is slightly down on power. May not be an issue for a street bike really, as it is mostly limited at the top end. but It is also a safety issue........... trust me. I have seen a guy think the bike is in neutral, thumb the starter, and the bike jumps out from under him because he did not have the clutch pulled in.

 

[phengm3]

will do.. thanks again guys..
