Common reasons why a Kawasaki Z250 won't start or fails to ignite include incorrect gear position, dead battery, or faulty starter motor. Incorrect gear position: For automatic transmission models, the vehicle won't start if the gear isn't in the P (Park) position. Check inside the cockpit to ensure the gear is properly placed in P. Dead battery: A dead battery is a major cause of starting failure. Normally, the battery voltage must be above 12.4V to successfully start the engine. If severely depleted, the battery must be replaced or jump-started. Faulty starter motor: The starter motor is responsible for rotating the engine's flywheel to start the engine. If it malfunctions, the engine will show no response when attempting to start.
