Did you ever get it fixed? I just bought this same year and model bike, and it has the same problem.

@SirSeanSean No I haven't gotten it fixed yet, but I know what it is.

new solonoid, not expensive and very simple to replace

[StillenGtr17]

Cool that's what I was thinking it was, because I can jump the solenoid and it'll start right up.

Ummmm.... I'd worry more about getting some front brakes! Last I checked, there isn't a "Flintstone hatch" on the Nighthawk... Just sayin'....

and another one, sorry to be a postjacker.

I wanted to add something to my first comment.

I regrounded my solenoid and that didnt work

I installed a new solenoid but that didnt work. So I put the old solenoid back in and replaced the negative battery cable and that worked. So I hope that helps
