So I lowsided my 600RR the other day in the loading docks, missed the kill switch, and my bike wobbled away from me on its 2 wheels into a concrete wall.

It dented my rim beyond repair, and I got that fixed. It was riding fine.... until I noticed that when I hit the brakes, the front triple moves a little. Did i blow my steering stem bearings or something? Everything else is fine... even the forks. Can anyone help me out?

Re-tighten your stem......you should be good.

*trix*

good advice +2

check the neck for cracks.

SmokechecK

No cracks on the neck, and also tightened the stem nut good. Still doing it.

pop the triple off n check it bottom or top movin?

old man roger

did you tighten the right part , the nut that is on top of the tripple isnt going to tighten the head bearings you have to take the tripple off

wow the rim was unrepairable and you fixed it? JK ... I have an upper triple $20 if you need it

+1....good lookin out, Rog!

SmokechecK

Hahaha... I fixed the problem, not the rim.

SmokechecK

I don't know what it is... but now my bike won't start unless i bump start it.... and the bat is fully charged. Now when i try to crank it.... i hear a click under the seat (the switch assembly) and i also hear lil beeps. Is that switch bad?

Also, Thanks OMR..... as I am going to pop the top triple off tomorrow morning and see what I can do.

SmokechecK

No ideas on why it just clicks eh?

old man roger

sounds like a dead battery or a loose connection

electrical problems are hard to diagnose over the computer ..lol

rookie stunter

elcetrical problems can be hard to diagnose period. too many variables. i get calls about electric problems all day at work and have to tell people the same thing all the time.

is it just making a clicking noise when you hit the start switch? is the fuel pump priming? also check the ground. might be loose.

SmokechecK

Fuel tank is priming, and it is clicking at the main switch.

old man roger

you keep saying switch , do you mean relay ? have you tried charging the battery or jumper cables ?

ps if you jump start it off a car dont start the car just use the power of the battery

SmokechecK

Battery is completely full OMR..... and it is a relay, however.... the parts list calls it a switch. haha. By the way, triple is tightened and working very nice.

old man roger

you may just have a loose connection then , i would make sure the battery terminals are clean and tight then work my way through the wires to the starter , other than that your gonna have to do some searching

SmokechecK

Hmmm, I will check it out tonight buddy. Thanks for the help.
