Motorbike engines have lots of interlocks to stop you from starting the engine unless you're in neutral, clutch down, sidestand down etc. You need to make sure they're all correct (or earthed, sometimes via resistors etc) before you'll get any sparks....
clutch switch bridged sidestand also bridged kill switch bridged and have been told neutal will not stop it starting
If ti was any of the interlocks it wouldn't turn over. Which way up is your tilt switch? It sould have the word "UP" on the top, not on
the side with the word the right way up.

makes no diffrace have tested at all angles
Does your fuel pump prime when you turn the ignition on?

no it is not
I'm afraid I'm no help to you on this electrical subject as the engine was wired in before I bought my car...
... but wanted to say how nice it is to hear of another Fazer engined owner.
They say the Fazer is the same as the R1 but I've learnt there are many differences. For example when my clutch went I found the mechanism is
completely different. NB: It uses plates with the same dimensions as the Yamaha R6, the R1's are much bigger.
You are welcome to visit (Leeds) to have a look at my wiring for inspiration. As a non road going 'racer', the wiring's fairly easy to
get to.
If you U2U me your e-mail addres I can send you scanned pages from the Haynes Manual which might help?
Are you using the original bike harness, it may have a 6-way and a 3-way connector for the cyclelock immobiliser, they both need a link fitted if you have the cyclelock.
a big thank you to chris mason
You say that now, but wait for his invoice via U2U!
