Try tightening the bolts that hold the wires onto the battery.

Hondarider22

ill try that but i doubt that is it, im getting no feed back when i hit the start button. im thinking its all wiring...maybe somthing to do with the rezister kit....like i said, i have no clue lol

no i did not but i think we know what it is, my kill switch was ghetto riged and i guess the wire that goes to the coil wasnt touching how it was suppose to, and that caused a short  >:( thats what i think it is...

Hondarider22

does anyone know where i can get a diagram for the wiring of the yfz, im trying to take my kill switch off and re connect the coil wires or whatever but im not sure which one it goes to?  ???

Mine did that and it was my wiring harness. Yamaha had to replace it for me. Hopefully it is your kill switch. Mine also recently went bad as well.
If it'll run... I'm ridin'!!!

figured it out, it was my relay assembly, which is good, an easy fix  ;D
