Bike just quit

Just joined. Bought a used 2002 R1150 R with 7800 miles. Riding to work today and the bike just quit, like it ran out of gas. The motor cranks but there is a whine when the key is turned on and when the starter button is released. Checked the fuse for the fuel pump, seems ok. Plenty of gas. Very perplexed.

You should repost on the 1150 forum. We're all 1200 snobs here. Good luck.

Repent and get a R1200R. That will fix the problem quickly

Ha! Well said!
Sounds like a relay failure. Clearly his machine is possessed. Try Holy Water
I wish him, and his 1150 well.
