starting up problem ! :(

Hi Guys,

I am asking your advise again p[lz ?

Ok, when I go to my bike & try to start her up in the morning (cold) the starter motor sounds like its not connecting properly with the enging gears to turn the fly wheel ?
& kinda misses the gearing.. I turn off ignition , then back on & repeat this procedure about 3 - 6 times before the motor starts up..
after the bike is warm , if I switch her off , she will generally start 1st time or second..

Its not an ignition/spark issue (I am sure) it sounds like the starter motor is just missing / not engaging properly ?

Battery is mint & new & no drama at all !

I will record a quick vid in the morning so you guys can have a look & listen , as you will prob know wats wrong straight away

thanks in advance Daz

Hey mate,
Do a search for 'sprag clutch ,might help.
I didn't like the sound when you turned it over on Sat.
Cheers
