    More info required for an online diagnosis <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->
    Is your neutral light on?
    Does the starter try to turn ( clicking noises ?)
    Is the clutch switch functioning
    What crankcase cover did you have off ??
    Is it in gear ?

    So the engine is cranking!!!

    Then the two things you need are spark and fuel.

    Did you have the plug leads off?

    Pull a plug out and check to see if there is a healthy spark when cranking. Earth the the body of plug to the head first.

    Open the drain valve at the bottom of one of the carbs to see if there is fuel present.

    What exactly did you have the crankcase cover off for???? <!-- s:Help: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif" alt=":Help:" title="Help" /><!-- s:Help: --> I HAVE TO KNOW!!

    Did you have all the sparkplug leads off at one time ?? and perhaps put them back on the wrong plugs?? What condition were the plugs in ??

    i had the cover off because i dropped her going round a left hander and put a hole in said crankcase cover .... i'll try and post some of the damage photos soon...in the mean time..only had lead 1 off to check the spark so there was no chance of cross wiring...plugs didnt look to bad.

    yours still frustrated Troy..aka .Aussie3ln3.

    Does it try to fire at all???
    If not -

    Try squirting some quick start down the carbs and see if it fires at all.
    If not then check to see if somehow the spark timing has not been altered i.e. flywheel moved around on crank in crash - I think its behind crankcase cover right hand side.

    Over than that you need professional help

    good luck - This message will self destruct in 30 seconds. <!-- s:???: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":???:" title="Confused" /><!-- s:???: -->

    Didn't expect that at all.

    Perhaps you need to thrash the bike more, to keep the carbon out <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->
