Hello, I have a 2002 R1150R. When I push the start button, I hear a click and then nothing. If I try again i hear a whine and still nothing. The whine is coming from the fuse box under the seat.
The battery is fully charged. I got a new starter relay and still the same result. I removed the starter and tested it and works fine as well.
The bike was running fine, just did a valve adjustment, started it up and ran beautifully, and I shut it off. I tried to start it a couple of days later and this happened. Any ideas? Thank you!

Re: Starting Issue
Can we assume you've checked all the appropriate switches? Some are kinda obvious but easy to overlook. It's in neutral, kill switch to on/run etc. On center stand with side stand up and so on.

Re: Starting Issue
That click noise is usually an indicator that the battery is very weak...or possibly a battery connection is not tight. Not sure about the whine under the seat. It has been a long time since I owned my black R1150R - "The Black Dominatrix".
