I went to Knuckleheads in Kansas City yesterday to watch a few bands and when I got to my R3 it would not start. I was the only Triumph rider there, complete with my union flag flying in the breeze. I thought I had not switched bike off and that the battery was dead. I wheeled it around the corner and called for roadside assistance. A couple of nice guys tried to help me bump-start her, but there was nothing. No power, just a red light on the top of the centre dial. Exhausted and hot I parked the bike and waited for help to arrive. Before he showed up, I glanced over and noticed the IGNITION switch under the tank was switched to OFF. I never move this, it is always left on, per this and many forums. I switched it back to ON and she fired right up. Some F**ker thought it was funny —I guess— to turn it to OFF. It cost me $108 and ruined the afternoon.
