CB750F1 starter issue - heeelp!
« on: October 09, 2023, 02:52:27 PM »
Looking for a bit of help here, my F1 has started to not restart if stalled in gear. I've gone through the wiring testing all and fitted a solenoid, all indications are that the wiring is fine. Bike starts and runs fine but will ONLY start on the button if in neutral.
Any clues would be appreciated (P.S. neutral light works fine) - Thanks in anticipation!

I know nothing about F1's but do they have a clutch lock out switch fitted?

Edit... Yes, they do.

Is it a USA spec bike with the safety unit.

Have you got a photo of the electrics behind the side panel.

Further checks do point to the clutch switch! never underestimate the obvious.
