So I go to leave for work this morning and find my battery to be weak and the bike won't start, the battery is only a few months installed. I know nothing was left on and I have'nt ridden it since Monday morning. I proceed to use my jump box and it fires right up and I open the idle lever to increase the RPMs due to the engine being cold. After a couple of mins. I close idle lever and the engine dies(engine not warm enough yet I guess), I pull in the clutch lever and the bike starts up again without me physically pushing the starter button!
I then check the starter button and it is pushed in and very loose and I cannot get it to pop out again. Now everytime I pull the clutch lever in it engages the starter motor even after the bike is running and also now my headlight wont come on even though it was working before I jump started the bike, though I credit this to my starter switch problem.
How does this happen, even if all the power to the bike is turned off can a bad starter button cause the battery to go weak? Keep in mind I had to push it the first time I started it it was'nt until the engine died and I went to restart it that it started by only pulling in the clutch lever. Thanks for any input!!
