Does it crank? Are you sure you put the battery back in correctly? Any lights on your dash? What year?
 
2010, got it last september. No lights are on the dash which is weirdd.... it was only in my garage for 3 weeks :s any clue?
 
did you check the main fuse?
 
well if u put in the new battery and u get no lights or anything when u turn the key then u put the battery in wrong

doesnt crank at all? Or cranks and wont start?
if it cranks and wont start, id check the fuel petcock. If nothing starts at all (no lights, no nothing) id guess your new battery needs a charge
 
Is the killswitch off?
 
To start, check that bike is not in gear and that kill/stop switch is in run position. The kill/stop, ignition, kick stand and clutch switches are wired to prevent starting the bike while in gear, which would cause it to lunge forward and possible injure you and bystanders.

If starter motor is not engaging, check main fuse, and connections.

Good luck!
 
Check to make sure you have the lead on the positive terminal and the negative on the negative one and that they are tight (not too tight, just so that it isn't or won't become loose). You should get at least your lights to come on. If not, make sure you actually got the battery charged. As in.... if you just asked for a battery, they are usually not charged up and ready to go.

If he bought a new battery, wouldn't he have to charge it first? Maybe that's why he has no lights on the dash.

But the dash should still have lights whether the kill switch is on or off. I'm just guessing he put the battery in wrong.

that is what i was thinking ... batteries i have bought in the past have either:

A. cheaper water based batteries i have to add acid / water then charge ... if you bought one of these but put in no acid / water then you don't have a battery you have a lead weight

B. buying a Gel battery i've always had to put it on for a few hours first.
 
Where are you located? Maybe I can help. PM ME
