It might sound that way, but that baby was frozen up tight when I replaced
it. It would not budge. A replacement was my lucky and easy answer. I'm now

No sidestand switch on these bikes.
Only on some bigger bikes. First to use that was the CB750A.

I agree, sounds like an electrical problem.
The official policy at Honda is "if it's there, leave it.. don't add anything
either" The purpose is to keep oil at the pump pick-up at all times. Hard
acceleration, hard braking. Fix a little now or a lot later. (whole lot)

OK, it sounds like a bad battery connection. They won't stay running without a
battery and the no click is no power to the solenoid. Both would lead to the
connection. The positive is a short run to the far side of the battery, I've
seen them loosen. Just a guess, I'm not there. After the connec
It doesn't always happen that way though. Last year, the starter on my
700SC went out. Over a period of several days, it would start sometimes
and not others. But I could always push start it in 3rd if it wouldn't
start and once it was running, it never stopped. When I took it in, I was

Sounds like it could have been some kind of short in the starter...

I also had a bike in the past that did the same exact things as you mentioned.
The starter was bad on that bike. I changed it and that fixed tthe problem. If
you change the starter soon then you might be able to save the battery.

Mine did that too. I was going down the interstate and the thing lost power. It
sputtered, I pulled over, it got one more sudden burst of power and I got it
home. It wouldn't start again after that until I installed the new starter this
spring. It has ran like a top ever since. HotrodMamma.

No sidestand switch on these bikes. One of the things I did test while in

and holding them together while trying to start it made no difference. I

I agree, sounds like an electrical problem. From the sequence of
events, I'd suspect the side stand sensor, but I can't remember off
the top of my head if the S has one.

I had a small leak around the oil pan on my 86 CB700 so I removed the
pan and replaced the gasket. I didnt realize that after reassembling
the pan and pipes I had forgotten to replace the small baffle plate
inside the oil pan. To anyone in the know, how critical is the baffle
plate for the oil cir

Kyle, I was about to ask the same why a bad starter will shut down the

It was a trucker who told me the easiest way to make a tailgater back off is
swerve to the shoulder and let the debris fly. But a bike doesn't lift that
much off the pavement, like a car or truck, o
You can have that one rebuilt (or rebuild it yourself...ask Dennis) unless you

Yeah, I switched it to RES after it died. I only had 51miles on that tank

Second Kyle:
That sucks man. I wish I had some advice for you other than 'did you check
the gas tank?' But I'd assume you checked to make sure you had fuel (right?)
At least you stay riding you stuff though. Mine seems to slip out from under

Hi,
The first Kyle here, and my bad luck doesn't involve falling off the bike so
much as keeping it running.
My new (to me) 700S just died. I had the fun of pushing it home the last .8
mile. I took it to walmart to get new wipers for my truck, and when I came
out I turned the key, all the lites cam
