Hello everybody Im Radek and Im writing to you from Poland. Unfortunately I have engine issue, it won't start after instaling chain. I dont see any connections between but still, after instaling chain engine don't won't to start.Starter is running perfectly, battery is full. I've check out spark on spark plugs, ECU errors, pump, everyting is correct. Fuel is also deliver to engin because after longer starter running you can smell unburned petrol from exhaust. Any suggestions? Im so looking forward to read your help. PS sorry for bad english
 
could you have flooded it with too much gas? Is the clutch in, with the bike in netral, and the side stand up?
is it turning over or just not doing anything.

I have 3 times changed spark plugs. Yes its turning over-starter is running every time i press start button. I don't have instaled clutch sensor but nevertheless it should start. Clutch sensor is only importand when the bike is in gear but ofc im trying to start in neutral...

Make sure you didn't mess up the side stand sensor. That would be my first check.

I think i didn't mess up with s.s.s. otherwise starter would not run after pressing start button. Anyway I have started engine on this s.s.s. without chain
 
first things first let us go back to basics,
one, and engine needs spark and fuel to run, let us first eliminate spark from the equation. remove one of the spark plugs from the engine and put it back in the spark plug boot. hold the threaded part of the spark plug to the engine block and try to start the engine. if you see a blue spark then you have eliminated this variable. if you see a orange spark this means you have a failing ignition coil or a diminished battery and it may not be enough to get it started. if there is no spark at all let us know.
now if you have spark then we need to test the fuel. wipe clean the spark plug and make sure it is dry. put the spark plug back into the engine and attempt to start it. then pull the spark plug back out. if the plug is wet then you have fuel. if it is dry then there can be a myriad of issues. make sure your fuel line from the tank is not kinked, in line fuel filter is not clogged. make sure you actually have fuel in the tank.

do all of this and report back to us, we want to help but we need as much information as we can get.

I've sprayed body spray(flammable) into the velocity stack and quickly press start button. Engine start working for 2or3sec and then dead, so it must be something with fuel injection. I saw injectors working and heard petrol pump working after turning the key.Fuel line is not kinked. Any suggestions?
