I was away for 6 weeks and so my bike was just in the garage, on its centre stand, and probably getting a bit cold.
However, when I came home and tried to start the bike, I switched the ignition on, which worked, I.e. the lights came on, etc., but there was an additional noise I heard during this process.
I pressed the starter button but the bike wouldn’t start.
I checked that the kill switch wasn’t on, that the side stand was up and that the bike wasn’t in gear. All OK, but it wasn’t until I pulled on the clutch and retried the starter button, that the engine started.
Anybody had the same thing and/or knows what the problem is?
