Howdy all,
I have myself a '06 Suzuki Boulevard M50 (VZ800).
At work last night, she started fine, with no issue... I turn around to have a puff, I turn back and the headlight is now out, both high and low (but all other lights work fine).
I figure just a fuse blew, and I'd take it safe of the way home.
Just to be sure, I turned the bike off, let it sit for a minute, depressed the clutch annnnndd the engine started again (Usually, as I'm sure you all know, it's clutch in, starter button... not just clutch in.)
Now, every time I pull the clutch, the starter motor kicks over for a second, and the fuel injections whine (that priming sound, not sure the exact terminology) for as long as I hold the clutch.
I managed to get through most of the lights on the way home, so there was minimal clutch action... but it's still a problem.
I've checked all the fuses (all good), and have done a visual check on the majority of the wires (also good.)
Any suggestion as to WHY this may be happening, would be awesome - as I am COMPLETELY stumped.
Cheers,
Tom
