    can't get it to start

    Not sure what I did, but I can't get it to start.

    Changes after last start:
    removed front wheels
    removed and reinstall rear wheel
    that was it

    I've also checked all the fuse and they are good. it looks like the bike thinks the battery was disconnected, but didn't. the clock started at 1:00

    here is a vid

    check to make sure your battery positive + ground connections are tight & clean.

    i know it sounds simple, but that's all the problem was on 3 of the last 4 bikes i saw with that problem.

    Didn't you hear the kid? "Don't do it anymore."

    If it is still not starting after the battery is all charged up check the cables and all the ground wires. Check the wires at the starter too.
