2002 Intruder 1400 won’t start

Post by Bulldog »

My 2002 Intruder 1400 won’t start even after replacing battery and plugs (it turns over, gets spark, fuel)
It tipped over trying to get it onto patio. ? Does it have a tip over sensor? If so where’s it located? Called 2 Suzuki dealers service Dept. who didn’t know???
HELP somebody! Thanks
Also checked clutch and kickstand switches (working)

One of my bikes fell over (kick stand folded while idling) and it was a bitch to get restarted
Make sure your new battery has a full charge

There is no tip over sensor.
Try with then without full choke.

Try knocking it into gear and rock it hard against the engine compression a couple times, then retry starting with it in neutral.
I know you tested the clutch and kickstand switch, but try bypassing them to make sure. I had the clutch switch test fine on my LC but it was preventing the bike from starting anyhow.
