My 2009 XB12XT died while riding. The battery had been going bad so I replaced it. Now the engine turns over but does not fire. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

Check the relays? Fuses? Battery cables and ground connection? ECM for cracks? Voltage regulator?

Not the ECM--where would I see cracks?

Some older XT's had the ecm/seat contact and would crack the ecm.

When you say fire does that mean you have checked for and found no spark?

My 2009 XB12XT Ulysses was doing the same thing. Got a new EBR ECM and relocated it away from the seat and shes been running fine.

pull the plugs look and see if you fouled them {black}.The ecm AFV might need to be reset. But lets check the plugs first.

I've had a starting coil go bad on me while riding, same thing it would crank but not start. I'd give a look at that. To start a bike you need fuel compression and spark.
