Ok so my bike wont start or rank when I push starter button bought a brandnew spanking battery the other day and I was showing my friend my motorcycle so I hit the button and started right up but I had my battery resting on the seat and I moved the bike out of his drive way around cars and leaned the bike too far in a direction and battery slipped so negative connector ring broke off so its like a square and I think I damaged the starter relay somehow (needless to say not at all experienced with bikes) and after I tried putting what was left of the negative ring on the battery and still nothing light were fine and headlight goes off when holding button and no click what so ever I had to get bumpstarted and half way home after about 3-4 mins or so my bike died on a high up bridge luckily not a lot of traffic behind so I managed to push start the bike on my own but then the bike died a minute later so I ended up pushing the bike the rest of the way. I changed out the negative cable and still nothing.
Today I bypassed what I believe is the starter relay the metal between starter and battery and held a screwdriver to the positive and negative and bike was hesitant to start but managed to get it going but unless I'm revving the bike it will immediately die as soon as I remove the screwdriver from the 2 terminals.
Check my other post to see what I have been happening to my bike ordered a new or used starter relay for my motorcycle
