I picked it up today. They did a recall item unrelated, put a new battery in it, swapped some parts from another new bike to check things out. It works now, but there is a method to it. Kind of like the 18 KTM sx's that we see at the track. Push the button, walk away for 30 seconds, push it again, walk away for another 30 seconds, come back and it'll fire up. These li batteries need to warm up. I've had them in the past and understand the process. Never the less the bike works like it did when I got it.
Don't really know what the issue was, could've been as simple as a toast battery, although I did drain a lead acid as well. The tech said go ride it this weekend and let him know how it goes.
As a bonus one of my riding buddies was the tech, and took the time to re-jet my bike for me. Totally different machine..
I also took the time to actually install my rad guards. Hats off to BPD for an easy install and killer machined product. Fit was perfect and both sides mounted in 30 mins.
