Battery problem GSXR 600?

I have a GSXR 600 S reg and use to commute to work on a daily basis. After leaving standing for two days the bike won't start, no power at all and won;t turn over.

In order to get it to a garage I need to check the battery to jump start but have no idea how to get to it. Can't see any obvious way of removing the main seat.

Any ideas?

    The seat comes off by putting the ignition key in the helmet lock and turning to release the seat lock.

    If the helmet lock moves you are turning the key the wrong way.

    Access to the battery is just behind the tank under a plastic cover secured with two screws.

    You could do with getting yourself an optimate charger.

    You can run-start the bike turn ignition to on

    select 1st or 2nd gear with the clutch pulled all the way in

    run with the bike or have someone push you...and pop the clutch, bike should start

    Your battery is under the front seat, just remove using tools that came with the bike or a key or a latch depends on your bike

    Probably just a dodgy connection, i had an old gsxr600 and one day the immobiliser wire came loose for no reason and the indicator connections.

    As said above, you can start it by bump starting,ignition on,2nd gear,clutch in, run as fast as you can with the bike and let the clutch out. be ready to pull the clutch back in and brake when it starts other wise it will stall and jump about

    You can also "bump" start the bike.

    Turn ignition "on".

    Select 2nd gear with the clutch pulled in.

    Run with bike, hop on and pop the clutch, bike should start.

    Your battery is under the seat.

    Remove rear seat with the key, lever inside will allow aces to front portion of seat.
