Ok so update , the bike shop called and said they think they may have cracked it . They said back light is shorting and causing the battery to cut out . I’m hoping that is what it was all along ! But il find out for sure when I collect it . I will also go over all the details you’ve all sent me just incase . But hoping this could be it !

@RideWithStyles no it does not make any sound when the key is turned . The battery on it at the moment is a vertex . The year of the bike is 2011 I believe.

I would say it cuts out particularly at high revs . And then completely loses everything . Then when trying to start complete silence, the only thing happening is the engine management light , and the neutral light however when you hit the electric start the neutral light dies , and fades back in when not pressed.

Would it still be possible that it is the battery even if this works on another bike and not mine? As the mechanic is putting me another battery on , and I’m not sure I need one , unless I’m mistaken?

Thank you @Mississippi Bullfrog il give that a go , and definitely thinking about a CTEK charger , never really had any other issues only this one , I feel the new battery will mask the problem , as it’s been ongoing for a couple of years but last time I had a new battery , and starter , but I don’t think they found the actual issue

Hi All , I was wondering if I could get some advice , my Honda CBF 125 has been having some issues with losing power whilst riding. I can be going about 40 mph and the bike loses all power . When coming to a stop because of this it struggles to start , no power whatsoever . The neutral light fades in and out . And the engine management light comes on . I have had the mechanic look at this and after the first 2 inspections he said there was nothing wrong , as I managed to kick it back in before taking it in. Now it’s there again and will not start . He said it is showing battery fault , however when trying the battery on another bike it works , when trying to use leads it works , however when putting the battery back on the bike , same issue. His option was to put a new battery on , however this is a battery I have had since only April . I’m abit confused as to what it might be . any help would be appreciated.
