So I started the bike in the normal manner - there have been a few problems lately with hesitant and non turning of starter motor. This time, when the bike started, the starter motor wouldn't disengage. I switched off - kill switch and ignition key, all lights went off - and the starter motor kept right on cranking the engine over!! I
removed the ignition key, put bike on side stand -
and the starter motor kept right on cranking the engine over!!. I rushed into the garage to get tools - the engine still cranking - and removed the battery lead - it stopped.
The same thing happens each time I try again.
There was me last week thinking the battery must be getting flat. There's
nothing wrong with
this battery!
How bizarre is this.....?
The dealer's coming this afternoon to collect the bike but reckons they wont be able to look at it until friday
Watch this space.........
