Hello to all. I have a 2005 F650 GS single that won't start just after replacing a dead battery. The bike ran fine before the issue with the battery and hoping someone on the forum can help. Bike turns over fine, fuses checked out, there's fuel in the tank. Checked all the obvious things like side stand, bike in neutral, kill switch and key, etc but am at a loss what to check next. I did try quite a number of times to start the bike with the dying battery, tried jump starting it as well since the 'dead' battery was not even a year old and always on a tender. Ultimately gave up and installed a new battery. It's my wife's bike and (sadly) sits more than it should. It had been run a few weeks prior.
Thanks in advance for any help as would hate to have to have the dealer pick-up and diagnose/repair the bike.
