C650 GT won't start

[Ata]

Hi Guys,
I recently bought a 2013 C650 Gt with 5000 miles. I drove it around 100 miles and yesterday i turned the key and all the dash lights came on and look normal, kick stand in & holding the brake and push the ignition but nothing, no sound, no cranking. The battery is still the original dated 2012. I took it out and charged it and tried again but same thing.
Anybody in the forum has the same issue before, An tips? There are no warning lights. Could it be the immobilizer? or something else?

If the battery is original, replace it. It probably wont take a charge anymore, one of the cells may have shorted or opened. You can measure voltage across the terminals, it should be over 12v, probably closer to 13 or more. If there is a load on the battery, it will draw the voltage down. A motorcycle battery will usually last around 4 to 5 years, this one is 8 years old. Cmon.

Do you have the kill switch to 'on'? Check whether the sidestand switch looks intact, or try and bridge it. Also, from memory, don't you have to squeeze the brake to get it to start? Maybe it's something simple like that.
