Yes, I originally thought it was the starter relay because that's where the sound was coming from when it was unable to run. Now I wish I had taken the left crankcase cover off earlier to see the...

Hi Juanro,

Yes, unfortunately. So far the carburetor was adjusted to less of a fuel-saving mode, it got a new battery, and I cleaned the battery terminals and made new connections. But none of...

Well, looks like the solution is much simpler than expected. Apparently there was a short with the starter relay and the contact drum, as well as the carburetor was set in too much of a fuel saving...

Hi Juanro, yes I'm currently in Cafayete. Unsure if I should try to hitch a ride with the bike back to Salta, or stay here and have a mechanic look at it. I doubt they will have parts in stock, so it...

Let the battery sit out after being fully charged yesterday evening and it's sitting at 12.41. Damn, hope I can find a new battery here. Once I track down a new battery, if the bike still doesn't...

Just got a recharge for the battery, but same issue when pushing the ignition button: whirring noise, won't start. I think this narrows it down to being a problem with the starter. Has anyone else...

I don't really have much of a choice but to start ripping it apart... but, I did check the battery again, and now it's sitting just under 11. Could it really drain that quickly? Testing the battery...
