There is a tip over sensor on the bikes. Maybe when you droped it the sensor was damaged. I hate to say it but probly have to take it to the dealership and have them check the sensor.

NO!! thats the last thing I want to hear.

Is there anyway of reseting this sensor if that is the problem? is it easy to locate??

I read somewhere that the fuel injectors have a tip sensor, which cuts off the fuel in the event of a tip over, but they said that once u striaghten up the bike it should be fine... Is this correct as well??

thanks...

What year is your bike? I'm sure there is some way to reset it but I don't know how to but I'm sure someone here knows. If not call a kawi dealer and ask one of the service guys how to reset it. They might be cool and tell you how to. Sorry i don't have any other info for you. Hope you can get the bike started.

Yea F the dealer! haha I called there and he laughed in my face, told me there is no such thing as a tipover sensor. He wanted to know where I heard that nonsense from lol. But ummm, I checked EBAY under tipover sensor, and all i got was a BACK ANGLE SENSOR/TIP OVER SENSOR, for a honda cbr600. So should I be looking for a BACK ANGLE SENSOR?? This specific one for the CBR is located under the headlights.. What do you guys think??

Whwre could I get this manual for my bike???

Others should be able to give you specifics on fuse locations, I don't have the same bike so there's no telling where they are. If the starter isn't kicking in, it's either jammed up or there's no power getting to it (or the solenoid that triggers it).
