pull the plugs out, cover the open holes with a rag, crank it over, put the plugs back in, start it up.

so right now it wont even crank it over..it will crank by me just taking off the spak plugs

cjstunts

it wont crank, cause there is oil filling up the cylinders. make sure you cover the plug holes with a rag, cause all that oil is gonna squirt out!

check the things the bike landed on..
check the wires near the upper see if it got stretched or frayed or pinched.

does the fuel pump prime?
try it in neutral with the kickstand up, i just bought a wrecked kawi that only starts like that.

check the battery terminals, they can come loose after a beating

it doesnt turn over at all??


i wouldnt worry too much about the oil in the airbox, 99% of the time it causes no damage on the f4i, the thing is a tank

Before taking out the plugs you can use one of those metal turkey baster type things to suck some out from the top. Same **** happend to me. After you get some oil out, do like they said and remove plugs, cover throttle bodies and plug holes with a towel and crank away 5 seconds at a time. Dont get anything in your throttle bodies. My exhaust packing was full of oil, so if your exhaust is still clean on the inside take it off while you crank it so the oil will come out the headers. I was blowing smoke for miles till I got a new one.
