Husaberg FS 650 (e) 2005 starting issue

Hi Guys,

One year ago i swapped my honda cbr for a husaberg fs 650.
Untill 2 months i’ve never had any problems with it.
Now the problem is as follows:
In the last two months, it has happened several times that i go out for a ride (mostly 30-60min), i shut off the bike at a friends place or somewhere else. When i would like to take off again (after 30min), i can’t start the bike anymore, looks like the spark is gone that moment. Normally i’ve allways been able to start the bike with one kick. And when riding i feel no problems, bike rides like a train.

First time it happend i noticed that one of the yellow wires was damaged by rubbing the chassis, i fixed it but the problem didn’t go away. Second time i noticed the cable to the spark plug was a bit loose, fixed it again but the problem still occurs. Third time i changed the spark plug but it still occurs.

Later, i noticed that the ground cable from battery to chassis shows a bit burned, like there was a spark in the cable, i don’t know if it was allready there but that was the first time i noticed (probably from the first time when the yellow wire rubbed the chassis).

Now is the question, where can i look to solve the problem?
Had anyone else had this problem before?

Thanks a lot allready guys
 
so does the engine spin over?

Engine spins like normal. It just seems to mis a spark at that moment to get it running. Next day it will usually start again though by doing actually nothing..
 
Not going to be the problem but go through the carb. Clean replace anything that might be a problem later. Can't hurt. If you the time look at and clean wire connections , switches grounds/earth would be were I'd start.
 
just for fun, turn in the pilot fuel screw under the front of the float bowl a half turn and see if that helps.
 
year?

2005 model

Another thing that might help to find the problem: Approximately 5 months ago, I installed 4 LED turning lights, in order to make them work and flash correctly, I also installed another relay. Could this give an error or something like that?

Driving season is about over so now i’ll have time to clean the carb and check all wiring!
