- June 16, 2013, 13:38:00 PMOk now I did it. Had a couple nice long bug filled rides so it was time to wash the bike. Had the bike out earlier in the day looking at a new helmet at the local shops. Came home and about an hour later gave the bike what I would consider a normal wash. Normal for me is up on the lift so I can get the rims good and clean. After the wash I was going to drive her back into the garage. When I turn the key all the lights turn on and go out and I get that familiar electronic whine when everything is powering up. When I push the start button all I get is a single faint click. Did water get somewhere it shouldn't where should I start looking and in what order? Thanks for the in advance.
