Starter on motorcycle. Three or four times it was hard to start motorcycle (but started) and then it didn't start anymore.
(Kick start starts it. And motorcycle rides as usual. )
I checked relay and it is working correctly. Starter is getting full 12,6V when activated. And has good ground. When you activate it you can hear it spinning. I pulled it out of engine and I can see it spinning (I also think it is spinning while inside under load, as I can hear the same sound). But it doesn't start the motorcycle. All the teeth on starter seemed OK, the opposite wheel too (is it engaging the flywheel?).
It is really confusing for me. What is the problem if everything seems OK?
I know could look under the cover inside the engine and maybe I would see something. But I don't have gasket to close it back again and this bike is a daily ride.... . That's why I didn't go in yet.
It is this starter anyway, it doesn't have that relay on the top (or whatever it is) that actives it.
