Thumbs up no start

I just picked up a 2001 zx6 stunt bike real cheap, the problem is it will turn over if i jump the starter solenoid, but no power is getting to the ignition or hand controls, and there is no spark, I was told it could be the computer, anyone run into something like this? thanks guys

Re: no start

It probably is a loose wire. Check all the connections first, and then if it still doesn't start then I would go get a new ECU (computer).

Re: no start

thanks man, I checked all the connections and didnt find any loose ones, I did find one blue ground wire coming off the frame and a loose connector with no other side to it. thanks for the help
