I'm trying to start my bike. Absolutely nothing happens. No clicks, motor won't turn over... nothing. The electrics/lights/indicators/etc won't work either. Kill-switch is set to "Run". I tried crash-starting it but that didn't do shit. What could be wrong with it? The battery's gone flat in it before, but never like this.

Make sure the Batts connected firmly would be my 1st step, make sure none of the terminals are loose.

Check connections first and the main fuse BUT... If the battery has gone flat a few times recently the chances are its now beyond poo'd and is in fact deaded than a parrot in a dodgy british comedy sketch...
You cant really diagnose any electrical issue until you have a good battery so you might need to suck it up and get a new one. Sorry...

use jumper leads and if it starts its the battery

The last time it went flat was six weeks ago and it crash started. The last time before that was six weeks before that and before that would have been when I first got the bike. However, I'm not sure how old the battery is.Originally Posted by Paul in NZ

If the battery is really donald ducked it still is very unlikely to start... Where in wellie is the bike?

Can't see any problems with a GN250 - jump it off another bike to be 100%

It was the fuse. How to be sure it won't happen again soon?

It will - fuses don't blow for no reason. I would first check all wiring for broken or sheared wire and all connector boxes.

Carry spare fuses... And get the rectifier / regulator / battery checked over.
Fuses can fail from vibration so take a good squizz at the broken one - if it looks like its gone pop from too much electrical current / voltage then get bike checked fast.
