My bike wont start when I hit the starter switch. Nothing happens. It will crank when I roll it off. There are 2 wires coming out of the starter switch that connect to a black box on the front brake lever. When I checked to see if they were tight, the starter worked. I pushed on them to make sure they were tight and the starter wouldnt work. Is it the starter switch or the black box under the front brake lever?

I'm not familiar with that model, but some bikes won't start if the sidestand is down or the clutch not in. Or the front brake not applied, I guess.

I would check, in this order, if present:

1. sidestand switch
2. clutch switch
3. front brake switch
4. neutral switch

If jostling one of those gets things working again, check the wiring, clean the sensor, etc... Give it a good, critical look!
