BUGGER. My 2008 will turn over but not start.
Ran fine yesterday. Battery on a tender, fuses all good. 2000kms. Dealer picking it up. What would cause this?

Without seeing it, I say ECM. Maybe O2 sensor?

What safety interlocks does the Uly have? Are you getting fuel? Are you getting spark? A few things to start with that will help in troubleshooting.

At about 400 miles, my ULY also would not start. Turned over, etc., but no whine from the fuel pump. Dealer said it was a corroded connector at the fuel pump. Bike was manufactured 08/08, this happened 08/08 and the bike had never even been wet yet.

UPDATE:

The connector on the wiring harness that goes to the fuel pump had a bad crimp on one of the wires.
