How about loose battery connection, dead battery, alternator went out and of course the main fuse. Try jumper cables to the battery and see what happens but you should still have a warranty on the bike so the dealer would be a good choice.

John put this in the wrong place.  He has a 1500.



If global warming is happening...why is it so cold up here?

Thanks with the problems I thought maybe but the reply stands  ;D ;D basically generic.

I thought to myself wth this is unusual for our bikes.

Yea, I thought so, that's just not going to happen on an 1800... :angel:

As I intend to reach 125,000 miles with my F6C 1800 without any trouble (after that, I'll be too old and I'll have to drive a convertible  ;D) I'm relieved !  :evil:

Being a 1500... you probably have a dead battery.

I have seen times where the starter will spin, but the bike won't start because there isn't enough power left over to create a spark.

You were lucky enough to be at home and witness the exact time the battery gave out.
