My wife bought a 2006 Burgman AN400 for my daughter, who had been hinting she was going to buy it, with the intentions of daughter paying her back with 0% interest. Turns out daughter had decided she was too impulsive and was not going to get the bike. Wife asked me if I wanted it. Heck no...looks like a girls bike! My son has a Honda 650 Shadow and that was more up my alley, IF I was going to ever buy a bike. Then I got on for a test ride and was hooked. So now I've driven it to work twice and its shorting out...seemed to have something to do with kickstand, but now it's just dead, nothing comes on when I turn the key. Now I'm on this forum in search of others who may have had similar problems. I have found, and watched, the MicBergsma videos and successfully cleaned the contacts on the starter assembly (the bike started for a couple of days in a row, intermittently, afterwards, so I'm considering that successful - I am not a mechanic!). Anyways, enough about that...I'll go search the forums. I never had bikes, boats, quads or anything like that for this very reason. Friends who had these "toys" always seemed to have them torn apart...high maintenance. I'm hopeful once I find this problem that maintaining it won't be so bad.
