can you flesh out what this statement means? It's vague. Hopefully articulating it a little more accurately will help someone get you sorted out.

For example:
Does it mean that you are experiencing what is going on in your video if you kill the bike after it has been warmed up? (slow, high resistance cranking)

Does it mean the starter spins continuously in free wheel and isn't engaging the flywheel or cranking the motor at all?

Does it mean that the motor continually cranks over via the starter but makes no attempt to fire?


What was you starting voltage on that battery? Was the video your peak voltage or did you start recording after a failed attempt or 2 to start it?
Your battery voltage isn't recovering like I'd expect a fresh, fully charged AG to.

What squish did RKtech cut that head to? Probably only matters if you asked him for something wild vs what he normally offers.

One last question, is this a new or possibly worsened condition after you have had the flywheel cover off?
So what is happening when it is warm is the starter spins continuously in free wheel and isnt engaging the motor at all. I didn?t ask for a specific squish from RK, I just told him about my bike, we talked about jetting, and he sent me the head. I have not taken off any covers yet. I have the gaskets in case it comes to that. I called the dealer I bought the bike from and he said he never heard of any of these issues but he is going to contact GasGas and get back to me ASAP so I?m hoping he gets me sorted out.
The starting voltage on that battery was 13.08. The video is the very first start attempt on that battery. Last summer I had a 210 amp battery and I got one cold start out of it. After that I think I maybe got one for two warm restarts out of it. This was when the battery was brand new. After the first few ride on that battery it wasn?t able to even restart, just like I?m experiencing now. After calling dealers I was convinced I needed a stronger battery which I figured might fix it since GG did reccomed this 240 amp battery in the tech bulletin
