Just bought a 07 busa and it will not crank over. The battery wasn’t enough cca so i went out and got a powerful enough battery but still won’t turn over. Fuel pump primes. I can clutch start the bike but even after 30-40 minutes of riding it wont crank over on a hot start.
 
Hi, welcome along.
When you hit the starter button does it do anything at all?
Do you hear a click from the starter relay?
Does the starter motor turn at all? Ever??
Are you pulling the clutch lever in when starting the bike?
Is the gear position in neutral?
the more info you can give the better . . pretty hard to diagnose it over the internet.

Yes the bike is trying to turn over
Clutch pulled in and in neutral
 
Maybe semantics is an issue in the description. Cranking over and turning over may be the same thing, the starter is working and spinning the motor but it won’t start, right? It did bump start (you said clutch start) but even after riding it, it still wouldn’t start using the starter right? Some would say it cranks but won’t turn over, meaning it won’t start but I think most would say that cranking and turning over are the same. Firing up using the starter is where there’s a problem right?

Solved it, returned the battery for one with 300cca and she started right up. Lol this is why I post in the new owner section.

Yes, stock vs stock, the RC51 was the better bike...but like Many Hondas, the seat absoloutely sucked...a 2x4 with a cover on it.
And YES...I have a problem ok...quite the dilema actually; do I put full suspension on my Gsxr1k as planned...or buy a TL1kR, and ride the Gsxr on stock junk for the meantime??
I thought about it, and I havn't ridden a TLR in 24 years, but I have never stopped wanting one...so Yes...I want one, and I want pictures!
lol
