Mend Aprilia SR50 ditech Sr50 Start

Aprilia SR50 ditech won't start?

i have a 2004 aprilia SR50 ditech.. about 12000km

basically i was out in the night and didn'yt see this pothole in the middle of the road. the hole was about 4-5 inches deep and since hitting it there was a immediate loss of power. the next day it struggled to start and cut out 3 times. day after and it wouldnt start , it would sputter but not actually start. now it just turns over without any sign of starting. i have checked the spark plug and that is working. and i can still hear the fuel pump pumping when i turn the key. any help would be great

Check the air compresser is pumping correctly and the 2 wires to the injector haven't snapped inside the plastic coating

it could be the rollers in the variator... they could of came out of there position it simply could mean that you have to take out the variator and re-position them.

iv managed to get the bike to start. still not working properly. the bike is hard to start. cuts out and has no power. the fuel pump is leaking a bit and the fuel pipe from the pump to the injector is starting to break by the looks of it. so i'll change the pipe first then if still no luck i'll change the pump. iv checked those bolts and they are still okay.

ok there suffer froma few things the fule pipes froms the fuel pump under the left hand side panel perish and leak and the loss of fuel pressure causes it to not run,the bolts that actaully hold the fuel injector in the head break whcih also makes al oss of fuel pressure.check these two things out and change any perished hose with new high pressure fuel lines.is there any fuel leakage when you try to start it ?i would aslo check the ht lead has not fallen off the spark plug as a bump in the road can easily do this.

Already have, still no reply. im going to take check the carb filter tomorow, check if petrol is getting through the carb and if there is any dirt. iv checked the underside but there are no marks to prove that the bike actually hit the ground. iv checked the exhaust and that has not been hit either. the bike is de-restricted so i was doing 40mph when i hit the hole. iv also checked all the wiring connections and they are all properly attached

thanks

write to council straight away. Get a piccy of pothole if you can. and then write to them.

I would start by checking all connections to carb. and check if petrol getting to carb ok? has something worked lose? was the inpact on the engine? where did it hit?
