How do I remove the cover that's holds the instrument cluster?? I'm trying to get to all the wiring underneath. I've already removed the front cover and windshield but can't seem to get the other cover off. I've also replaced the CDI and still no start but only turns over when I jump the solenoid switch. I think the left switch is bad at the brake because no brake light when depressed...........please help guys....I need to get this baby running again. Thks.

Agreeing with the guys, also check the pinconnector but the question is has it always,, only started this way?

To my knowledge it has always started only with the left hand brake as it's more convenient seeing as how the starter button is on the right with the throttle. I checked the brake levers and after spraying a little lubricant on them, neither one will light up the rear break lights now. Thus no start. I'm new at this and I am mechanically inclined, but just don't know where to locate all these items right off. I've trying to remove one of the main rear panels so I can get to the motor, but taking the trunk off the rear just to get the one panel off is a pain...........are there any short cuts to removing them?

No it won't start using the right brake and the engine won't turn using the left like it supposed to (it doesn't even click....only the fan comes on). I will try the WD-40 squirt when I get home from work tonight.

I only have about 965 miles on it and it has been starting (cranking) just a bit sluggishly for the last few starts. Now it won't even try to start. I have the fan hot wired where it always runs (per the vendor mechanic's suggestion back when it used to run hot). So when I turn the key on, the fan comes on, the horn blows, the right brake lights up, but the left one don't. That's the one used to actually start it. So I'm thinking the problem is somewhere in the rear braking mechanism. I checked all the fuses under the seat and they look fine. Any suggestions or details on how to repair this problem?
