Default Raptor 660 problem

My quad has been sitting idle for the past few months due to working so dang much. Anyway, I went out & charged the battery to full charge & attempted to start the quad & it does nothing. The headlights work & the voltage is correct, but the quad won't even make a peek when trying to start it. I hear stories of the one-way going out, but can it go out suddenly like that without any warning or any noise? Gas is fresh. I checked the fuses & very thing looks good. Any suggestions on what I should check prior to buying a one-way?

Thanks

My guess is the relay fuse or the relay itself. Also check the battery connection to the starter. If the starter isnt even turning then I woudlnt be worried about the one way yet.

I agree with dog. Dumb question but is the switch by the left grip switched to run?You could try jumping across the two big terminals on the relay to see if it turns over, that would eliminate the starter or a bad ground if it turns over.Use a BIG wire, jumper cables or a pair of pliers to jump the relay.

I finally fixed it. It turned out to be the start button. I opened the switch on the handle bars & sprayed WD40 & clean out all the mud in there. Once that was done, the bike started right up. Actually better & stonger than it ever did. Thanks guys!
