You haven't specifically said how it fails.. or if you have I have missed it. Is it binding and not turning the engine over? is it turning over but not firing? |

sometimes it will spin but not fire. It will never start when cold. It will never start when hot if its in gear it only starts when hot if I kill it and immediately restart and in neutral. If I kill it and wait a couple minutes it wont start. if I kill it in gear and try to restart immediately it wont start. It also wont start on the first kick anymore, now it takes 2 or sometimes 3 kicks. When I first got the bike it would start on the first kick. This is not a big deal but wondering if this could be related in any way. This is really bumming me out. The bike is amazing everywhere else but this starter is getting frustrating. I was told by a rep and a dealer before I bought the bike that it would be fine with the new CDI and cables, but it seems the problem goes way beyond that. its too bad GasGas wont do more about the issue other than reflashing the CDI and giving you one cable then leaving the rest up to you. Ive been very vocal about how great this bike is but its getting hard when realizing how in depth the starter issue is. |

Are there replacement parts that are upgraded for the proper fit? Basically im having a hard time figuring out why I would replace parts that are only 20 hours old with the same parts and expecting the problem to be fixed. Sounds like it will be a revolving door of replacing parts if im expecting the starter to keep working. What can I do different and what different parts can I get to actually solve the problem? |

Have you tried changing the battery to a gel mat?

Do the bench testing and inspection before just replacing parts and see what you find out.

I've been told that a gel mat has cured a couple bikes that had similar issues on the stock batteries..
Could be something to it.. |

I honestly don't know if you need to pull the bendix cover. I know I would order all the gaskets (or make your own) because i would be pulling the whole system apart and inspecting all aspects of it.

No need to pull any covers.
Just remove the two screws, remove the starter cover and pull back. I had the same problem with my bike and my 2 cents goes to the starter. Video with the original starter (the whining noise doesn?t sound so well, but it?s there): https://www.dropbox.com/s/wounhilbgd..._0024.MOV?dl=0 So nothing happening, just noises... Then I got a new start from importers demo-bike... https://www.dropbox.com/s/fa69lj3msy..._0027.MOV?dl=0 Spins and starts way better than on the first day. So my guess is that based on your description it doesn?t help if you change the bearings, you?ll end up with the same problem, with new bearings. Just for info, I had the CDI done, uprated battery done, cables done ?> no help. Starter done ?> yahoo!!! |
