cheers
It seems my starter motor doesn't want to play any mrore, its sucking the life out of the battery.
Up for a new starter & battery
Oh well, it's only money.
Id like to go for a ride but the bikes in the shop getting all tarted up for the week end after
Just back from a trip to SA...nice few days away...be keen for a ride.....see ya's at the BP
The bike would sometimes start no worries, then other times just the starter would click. I charged the battery once on a good quality trickle charger and it was OK for a short time, then fucked again.
The solenoid on the starter is playing up and was just kicking the battery in the guts every time and it just gave up the ghost. Had it charged to 14.3 and when trying to start dropped down to 4.
Ended up getting a good quality 1.4kw Canadian made starter for $360. For the exact same one at Rollies was $797!!!!! Got it through Parts Pro (who advertise on this site) and they were great to deal with.
Battery with 12mth warranty $110
Pick it up tomorrow morning.
Sorry guys but unfortunately I have to pull out of the Anzac Day ride.
Well looks like i'm out as well, have been lying around all day with a head cold, weather does'nt look good for tomorrow, last thing i want is to feel worse than i do now. I know i may be weak, but fuck, i want to be over this shitty feeling ASAP
Be good to catch up again Jill....been awhile since I been on a decent ride.
Cya's at the BP with a wild bean grin
What's all this then??
A ride organised and happening in 4 pages?
Back in the day, 6 was the absolute minimum requirement.......
