Vader 125 not starting and now I'm stranded...

[Medicbobs]

So I was literally sitting on it and it just died. It has strong power but does nothing when I hit the starter. Does not turn over or make any sound.

I've tried wiggling wires..
Making sure the starter wires are in.
It's in neutral..
Push starting didn't do anything.

I'm lost and stuck for an hour while I wait on a truck. This is the last time I leave without tools.

Battery could be low or dying from not being cgarged from the stator.

It's brand new and horn and everything works fine.

Check fuses

There is a possibility the starter went bad.

Bump start?

At home, check for spark.
If none, possibly the coil or the CDI unit. (make sure connectors are plugged all the way together.)
If you have spark, check for fuel flow to the carb.
If fuel flow is there (when you remove the fuel tubing from the carb), remove the spark plug, squirt a small amount of fuel in to the plug hole, install the plug and try to see if it fires on that little amount of fuel. If it does, then it is a carb problem.
These are just a few things to quickly check on.
Hope it helps.

Thanks for the responses guys. It was the starter solenoid relay. I posted a video about it. I have one ordered for 6 bucks that'll be here Monday. I literally tried everything and it helps I have 2 of these bikes.

Fuse was good
checked all wires
swapped batteries

Hopefully this helps some people in the future. I ended up jumping (or bumping) the solenoid just to ride a little bit tonight until the part comes in. That's the thing about these bikes, stuff goes wrong sometimes, but if you are mechanically inclined you can figure it out.

Here's the link to the part btw:
