Hello just a quick question if anyone here has experience for fixing wrecked bikes. I've wrecked two(not proud or happy about it) but afterwards they both did the same thing when I try to start it. I dont hear any cranking but a relay and some electrical buzzing. I am somewhat mechanically inclined, i've done an engine swap before so hopefully I can figure out whats the problem with some help.

I replied to your other thread as well. Have you checked your battery? If the battery isnt leaking or cracked then hook up some jumper cables (leave the car engine off) and try to jump the bike. I would almost guarantee that it will work.
