Nope, no GS-911 scanner. No voltage meter either, so I'll have to pick something up that'll reach the pos and neg poles on the battery.

Will get something tomorrow and report.

Pretty sure the kickstand switch works, because it prevented starting the first time I tried to fire it up after reassembly. But will look at the area again.

What do you mean by the clutch switch? The neutral indicator? That works.

After you have those numbers I'll try and walk you through a couple of tests to narrow down the lack of power.

Make sure the kickstand and clutch switches are working, too. You don't happen to have a GS-911 scanner, do you?
