My fizz won't start all the sudden. When I hit the start switch it just makes a loud noise like a nasty door buzzer. Road her all day, engine temp was around 211F at the time and filled up the gas tank a few hours ago. What's goin on? thanx.

Any fault codes?

Check this thread: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-...-code-info-helped-me-diagnose-my-problem.html
if you need convincing that the codes actually CAN help you.

Loose battery connection or low battery?

Theres a listing of the codes here:

That, - if you even get a code displayed?

No codes, it was the battery. I push started it, drove it around for 10 minutes, turned it off and started it again no problem. I drove around all day with the high beams on. Didn't know this could drain the batt. I left it on idle for a while a couple times today too. Thanks guys.

Good to hear the problem is fixed!!!

Perhaps you should consider to get a pulse maintenance charger, - will keep your battery fit for fight.

Only if you idle a lot or keep the revs below 5k.
I used to use my high beam all day and never had a problem, but I turned it off at stopsigns/lights and kept the revs high.
