Help, Apollo 250 rx won't start!

Wzzkd · 07-25-2016, 04:02 PM

Hi!

I am new to this forum and wondered if someone could share some thoughts. I bought an Apollo used (bike was built 03/2015, so still pretty new) locally. The bike had been running great, but then yesterday after having ridden it most of the morning it would no longer start. The starter won't even click and I can't kick start it either.

I did jump it once directly to the starter and got it to fire up, but otherwise nothing. Any thoughts on what this could be and the best avenue to rectify the situation and get it running again?

Thanks for any and all thoughts

Human being suggestion first

Fuse under seat second

Fuel, spark, compression, bang etc,etc,etc

Turns out one of the wires coming from the starter switch was severed. Fixed it and then blew the fuse. All straightened out and running great again!
