Why is it that when I hook a jump box to mine it will start right up I just put a new lithium battery and it does exact same one you got right there and it was fine for like 3 days. I put a JD jetting and it seems like it started doing it after that

[@UpAllNight91]

JD jetting? Do you mean the CDI? If it starts with the jump box only... I would try a different battery and if that doesnt work then look at the starter. Sometimes starters can pull too much juice when they are about to give up.

Hey I have a 2022 crf250r and when you try to start it the bike won’t crank. The fuel pump will only turn on? Do you know what’s wrong with it?

[@UpAllNight91]

Could be a few things. Fuel pump turning on is good, we know the start button and the ECU is working. Its not seeing the motor spin so its pulling out on the starter. I have 3 videos on theses bikes with starting issues, it covers all these areas and that should surely help.

[@JoshuaCussins]

Hello, today I removed my stator cover on my 2022 Honda CRF250R. The stator windings got sheard from hex bolt that loosed up from flywheel. There are 6 torx bolts (Part# 90086-K95-AA0) that go through the flywheel into the Clutch Outer, Starting (Part# 28125-K95-A21) you can find them on the Starting Clutch Diagram. I am wondering if anyone knows the torque settings for those 6 bolts. Any help will be much appreciated, thank you. Also if anyone knows the torque specs for the 3 stator bolts that hold stator onto the left side cover. Thanks again.

[@UpAllNight91]

Hello. I checked the manuals I have and cant seem to find them torque specs in the manuals. But I would be ok just using thread locker on them and tightening them by hand to what I felt was good and tight but not so tight to risk damaging threads.

[@junickcharles6260]

I’m kinda confused @5:28 so if it sparks with no sound the starter is done what if it sparks and you also hear it trying to turn over does that mean the starter is fine and the problem might be the starter gear

[@UpAllNight91]

Yes. sounds right

[@JoshuaCussins]

I just bought a 2022 CRF250R the bike fires up and runs. I took it on a trail ride and after 30-40 mins the bike died out of nowhere. I tired bump starting but no luck. Starter button would turn over but did not have enough juice to start. Luckily I was with some friends who let me ride one of their bikes back to camp to grab a tow strap and a portable jump starter. I was able to start the bike with the jump starter and ride back to camp. I am worried to ride it now in fear of getting stranded. Do you think it could be something wrong with the charging system on the bike? I want to believe it is just the battery, but i am able to recharge the battery and the bike fires up fine. My thought is that maybe the stator or charging system is not working (a fuse?) Maybe the bike runs until the battery is too low to run fuel pump and then dies? maybe its not getting enough power from motor to recharge while ridding? what are your thought? thanks for any help. I watched your other videos on this topic, I dont think it is the starter motor or reduction gear as the bike will jump start. It will just die randomly while riding.

[@UpAllNight91]

Hello. I believe as you suspect, charging system failure. I would put a volt meter on the battery post. Check the voltage while the motor is off. Then start it up and bring the revs just above idle and check again. The voltage should go up if the charging system is good. But if the voltage never goes up, but only slowly down then you will need to dig in and check the stator, voltage regulator, and maybe even wires. But its usually a stator or regulator.

[@JoshuaCussins]

@@UpAllNight91 Thank you. I confirmed last night with a volt meter that battery voltage is slowly going down while bike is running. Voltage was at 13.4v before running bike. After running the voltage slowly dropped to 12.9v before I hit the kill switch. Today I will remove ignition cover and inspect the stator/alternator.

Thanks brother! I would start with a new fuse all together. I know sounds crazy but I've seen it before.

Do you happen to know why the lights flashing orange when trying to start mine won't turn over after a top end rebuild.

[@UpAllNight91]

Hmm if it was starting fine before the top end. The first thing I would do is remove the inspection cover to get access to where you turn the crank when setting cam timing and turn the motor at the crank with hand tools. Turn or spin the crank by hand two full turns to make sure you dont have something binding up like a valve making contact with the piston or such.

[@Body_Dropped]

Anyone got a clue why my 2021 crf250r don't wanna start?

That could be a starter button, a starter relay, or just a bad starter motor itself. I would start by checking them 3 things at least.

My buddy has a 2020 crf450r and it starts up and will ride but will die while riding and have a hard starting back up after it dies like the batteries dead. We swapped a new battery in and it started right up let the bike idle for about 5-10min to let it charge and it died 5min into a ride and wouldn’t start back up and drained the battery we loaded it back up took it home and I put the battery back in to see if it would start and it almost kicked over but instantly started loosing power and it just clicks now when I press the button. Could it be the starter or the little reduction gears on the inside of the clutch case?

[@UpAllNight91]

Kinda sounds like the generator is not charging the battery. Based on a new battery started it but it only ran for a little bit. I would charge the battery, start her up. And then check the voltage at the battery terminals while its running. Hold the throttle open to raise the RPM's just above idle and check the voltage. If the charging system is working good it will read 13 volts or higher, If the charging system is bad it will read mid 12 volts and slowly be dropping in voltage.

I've got the same problem on a 22 CRF250R. Thought it was a bad battery. New battery didn't fix it. It's making the exact same noise starter relay clicks. I can put a jump box on the battery and it'll start every time, I can also jump a wire straight from a hot battery and it'll start. Could it be a bad starter and the relay just not sending enough power to turn it over? The jump box steps the amps up.

Another great and informative video. Question, on a different topic than this video, but electrical related. Have you ever seen a P0261 code "cylinder 1 injector open circuit." This is on a 2021 CRF250R. 30 hrs, and has a GET ECU that is providing the code. I cleared it, it has not come back and bike was and is running fine. The code and orange MIL light on the map switch came on after multiple short start/stop sequences with engine at the track. Could battery drain from the multiple starts in a short period of time result in low voltage and throw a random code? Is there a good way to electrically test the fuel injector to rule it out? Assuming continuity and some resistance value?

[@UpAllNight91]

Hello. That codes means the injector is unplugged, or bad or bad wiring going to it. I have never seen that code pop up from a low battery. If its been running fine since and the code never returned I would probably say its ok. But it wouldnt hurt to check the connection at the injector and make sure its not dirty or loose or anything. If the code does ever return and the bike is still running fine then I would toss the stock ECU back in and check to see if the stock ECU also reports the same error code. As it could just a error on the part of the GET ECU. I have seen ECU's do some strange things. Ohh, also check the connection at the ECU, make sure its good and clean and fully inserted well.

For sure. Was also going to say a plug. But also did you check to make sure the fuel pump holds pressure? Or does the pressure drop off really quickly when the power is killed going to it?

And lastly if all that checks out well. Hows the compression feel?

Have you put a new plug in her yet to see if that was the problem? These plugs on these modern 4 strokes can go out at any time, young or old. It usually happens from warming up too quickly.

[@06Canyon-i5g]

@@UpAllNight91 I’ll give that a try

[@06Canyon-i5g]

@@UpAllNight91 I ordered a new plug I’ll find out today! One more question, does anyone know if it’s normal for these new bikes to get hot really fast? If I stand it and let it idle for 3 minutes, I can feel the heat coming on the engine from a few feet away. I feel like my Husqvarna never gets that hot. But maybe it’s normal for these newer Hondas?

[@UpAllNight91]

@@06Canyon-i5g yes they get hot fast. Unlike a car that has a cooling fan, these race bike have no fan. You are to start them up, warm them up for a minute or two and ride them. If you come to a stop while riding you will want to shut it down. Otherwise they can overheat within juat a couple minutes

I have a 22 for 50 RX and both times I’ve use the kill switch to to kill it it’s failed to start again but after waiting a while it starts I’ve stalled it and then I was able to restart it but this is happened twice now and I don’t know it’s cranking over but not starting

Your parts come in super fast. Who is your supplier.

[@UpAllNight91]

LoL. He had me overnight them

[@Slobfishn]

I was 🤔 same thing

[@Builtitlikelegos]

Does honda reimburse the customer for parts and your labor? 2023 should be warranty work right?

[@UpAllNight91]

You would think, but because they are race bikes there is no warranty implied or written. I have seen times where the customer has pressed the issue and they took the bike in for repair, but its usually stuff that results in a recall down the road. Not to mention it usually takes the shop 2 months to get it done lol.

Take it back

[@Hidalgo_97mx]

I changed my start and the motorcycle. He kept doing the same thing to me. Sound

[@UpAllNight91]

Im sorry, I dont understand. You changed the starter motor?

[@raymyers23]

My 22 CRF250R has a good battery and I’m getting power to the starter solenoid And has no blown fuses but when I hit the start button I don’t hear any fuel pump or clicking. It has 31hrs on it and I ride every weekend and pressure wash clean filter etc. motor not locked either.

[@UpAllNight91]

I would check your starter button. They do go bad. I would start with that. Next check to see if it is relaying power to the starter solenoid when the button is pressed. Also have you tried either push starting her or jumping the starter relay to at least make sure it will run? Make sure its not like a dead CDI PCM or the following... check the terminal with 4 wires at the starter relay. Too many times I have seen them get dirty and cause it just not to start. Unplug that and clean it all out, and reconnect. Thats kinda common if the bike is pressure washed

[@raymyers23]

@@UpAllNight91 also when jumping the starter relay switch I was able to get the engine to constantly spin over to no avail. Also didn't hear the fuel pump turn on but I'm second guessing myself alot on this bc I mostly work on heavy equipment and the start switch sending a ground threw me off

[@UpAllNight91]

@@raymyers23 one time I seen a honda that was doing what yours is doing it was the 4 wire terminal at the starter relay, corrosion. Another time it was corrosion at the fuse connection on the starter relay.

[@raymyers23]

@@UpAllNight91 mine ended up being the starter relay solenoid 10 amp fuse didn't look blown I pulled it out and was checking continuity and it didn't have continuity going from one side to the other so I swapped it with the spare fuse cleaned out the plug reconnected it and it fired right up.. I will note that having electrical problems on your bike is a very very good way to learn what everything is.

@@raymyers23 nice! Good find! Glad you got it going again. Yeah chasing a problem surely helps us get familiar.

Oops,unscrewing the Cap to get to theCrank to Spin it is Not the Fastest way to see if your Motor is Locked !!….putting the Bike in Gear & Spinning the Rear Wheel is !🧐🤣…Plus…that’s a 4 stroke for ya🤑

[@UpAllNight91]

May be quicker but lacks feel. When I spin the motor by hand at the crank I can also feel it, which can tell me alot

Damn this new Honda is really a piece of shit, I live mine when it’s not broken , but it has some Issues, I’m going to keep it and most likely buy me a 23yz450f yams have never Let me down

[@UpAllNight91]

Yesh can't go wrong with the yamahas. I often say if a honda will give you problem it will be when its brand new. Otherwise good bikes

[@Ccrider363]

@@UpAllNight91 it keeps shutting off in the air like I’ll give it a rev to bring the front up and it just goes clunk and dies maybe only 2 times but 2 too many times for me, great bike to practice corners on and hit the sand track on but for real Jumps I think I’ll stick to a yami

[@UpAllNight91]

@@Ccrider363 oh man, yeah thats not cool at all. I had a yz450 2015 that would sometimes shut off if I hit the face with no throttle and went air borne just right. I turned the idle up some and it cured that. On the hondas its often the overly aggressive auto decompression kicking in when they die just as you open up the throttle. Would have thought they would have addressed that by now but I also think they like it like that because it keep people from riding way to low in the RPMs. Riding too low is harder on crankshaft rod bearing, kinda like peddling a bike in high gear

2022 CRF250RX bike will crank but sounds like no fire, kill switch will not flash blue only orange (red).

[@UpAllNight91]

Hmm, can't say I've run into that one so I don't know off hand what that means. But since its cranking I would check for spark. If she's got spark then try dropping a couple ounces of oil in the spark plug hole and put plug back in. See if she will bark off when trying to start. That may help lead you toward your problem.
