The electric start button wont work, it will still start by kickstart but clearly there is something wrong and I want to put it right

are you pulling the brake on before youm press the start button???? as you need to :)make sure both brakes light the brake light up when pulling them individually as they are needed tp complete the starter circuit id neither one works then thats yoiur problem if only one works then use that brake to start it and get a new switch for the other one.if both work then check your fuse by the side of the battery and failing that a new battery and failing that a new starter motor will be the prob ok good luck adam.

You need to have your battery checked, if duff buy another. You may have a short somewhere which is draining the battery (prob a switch), it could also be the solenoid or starter motor itself. Try an autoelectrician if you can't sort it yourself.
