Super Four starting problem
Hey, I had new bars and throttle cables put on my Super Four last week and then last night when coming home from work the bike died on me. Was stopping at a junction and the revs were dropping. I knew I was coming close to needing to put the reserve on, so thought nothing of it, flicked on the reserve and the bike died. Hit the starter and the lights dimmed and I could hear a clicking sound from under the seat.
Was able to bump start it, but it doesn't idle so I have to keep the revs up.
Any ideas what it could be? Have never had any battery problems or starting problems before, so seems very strange to have just started all of a sudden.
Gonna do my best to get it bump started again and round to the local Honda place, but if anyone has any ideas that could help me I'd really appreciate them.
Thanks

Re: Super Four starting problem
Problem solved, simple case of a seriously dead battery. So just got a new battery fitted and everything seems to be running fine again, thankfully.
