What to Do When a Motorcycle Battery Dies and Won't Start?

[LeCorbin]

If a motorcycle battery is dead and the engine won't start, you can use the kick starter for a quick start. Below are the related reasons why a motorcycle may not start: 1. Low winter temperatures: Use the kick starter, and ensure the choke is fully engaged in normal conditions. During cold winter starts, move it to the topmost position, then adjust to the middle after about 15 seconds once the engine starts. After the motorcycle warms up, fully engage the choke again. This process typically takes three to five minutes. 2. Low idle speed: In summer, the idle speed should show one or slightly more notches on the gauge, while in winter, adjust it to between one and a half to two notches. 3. Faulty spark plug: Replace it with a new one. 4. Faulty carburetor: Clean the carburetor.
