Good evening....
This is what happened...i went to work normally and parked my bike outside. During the day it rained a lot, i left my job and when i pushed the start button it failed a bit (no signal in the start motor) but then started normally. When i got home i parked my bike and made a rear brake pads change (normal). When i tried to start the engine to go for a ride, nothing. The starter motor dead...no signal.

things i've done: i checked the cables and the start button for any dirt and applied some WD40 to remove any water
i checked the fuses
i hammered the start motor still nothing
i checked the battery and it was alright

I can hear the rele when i turn on and off the red button but when i push the starter nothing...

anyone have any ideas? :idea: :?:
