2001 400ex won't start help
 
So the bike got hot wired, and it would still run after it did if you just touched the wires together, well someone fooled with it, and now it won't start. I even tried push starting it and it still won't start please help

Would a blown fuse keep it from even push starting?

It is not a good idea to push start as it puts a lot of strain on the one way clutch. If the EX is similar to most Honda quads, it would have a four wire ignition switch, two wires have to be connected together for ignition "live" and two (either connected or disconnected) for CDI earth. I suspect if you wired the CDI to the live wire you could blow the CDI. However you may just have connected/disconnected the earth to CDI wire. Get a new ignition switch, fix the fuse, and go from there.
