Ok all, this is probably just a stupid thing I did but now I need help. I have traveled from Alabama to Illinois to see my kids (980 miles). I just got done at the dealer getting a new tire. Took the kids for a short ride. When I got back my bike tipped over. Now I can't get it started. It was on at the time so I am assuming it is the tip sensor.

HOW do I fix this? Need to leave for home on Monday morning and dealer not open tomorrow.

Any help would be great!! Thanks everyone I am sure someone can help!

Try turning it on and then cycling the kill switch off and back on, then try to start it. IIRC, cycling the kill switch is necessary after a tip sensor trip to reset it.

Thanks, That worked. Started right up after a couple cycles.

Buelltoys, glad that worked. I remembered that from the reports of tipover switch problems prior to the recall.
