:Awe: :head bang: :head bang: :sensored: :rant:
So...I fires it up this morn, no prob. Ride to work, stop around da corner and fuel up as I do every mornin. Come back out, hop on, turn key, hit "Start"....click....click....click. WTF?!?! Lights are not dimming, batt not dead, just...click. :head bang:
Push start and get to werk. Check batt voltage, good. Whack the crap outta da solenoid, :builder: click. Check voltage AT The starter with key on, button pushed....get a big fat 12.6. :rant:
Beat the he!! :builder: outta da starter, and get some growls, some clicks, and it fires up. Shut off, try again....CLICK.....
So....apparently, my starter has gone to starter heaven(or where ever bad starters go when they crap the bed...). dammmmmit! :rant:
I ain't too excited aboot having to disassemble half the dang bike to get to it. I can rebuild it....I have the technology....just not the motivation.....have I ever mentioned have freekin LAZY I am? :lazy:
Anyway...if you choose to say a small prayer for my deceased starter, put in a couple of good werds for ME, too.....I'll need all the help I kin git.... :beg: :thanks:
