Default fell over..wont start
what happend...it fell over on grass thank god...here is my problem..when it fell it landed on the throttle side..it was running when it fell but shut right off,the brake lever didnt bend but it pushed back the front brake fluid tank assembly..no problem ..but here it is the bike dont start as far as I can tell I dont think the run switch was damaged it toggles fine and it didnt have any grass stuck in it what could possibly be wrong..I got a few replies about the tilt sensor or switch that you have to reset it by turning it on and of a few times...no luck does anyone know where on my bike i can find this sensor?

Did you turn it off/on/off/on to reset the tip switch?

What Rhubarb said - mine did the same and I needed to reset the "tip" switch. Try turn the IGN on and off several times.
