startor problem
[hr]
hi guys i own 02 cbr 954rr motor blew up last month so i found a used motor with forged pistons and back cut tranny.
so i took blown motor out and install the newer motor in everything is fine but the startor dosent work it cranked for 3 sec and then nothin my buddy who was helping me out told me that since the new motor has forged pistons(higher compression) i might need aftermarket startor. is that true if yes where can i find one if not what could it be i took it out and jumped it it spins.......
all inputs will be appreciated im this close to part it out cuz i got so much money into it but would prefer if i can get it run. thanks guys[/align]

RE: startor problem
ya thats what were gonna do 2day, battery is good and we tried to jump start from a car still no crank, there is a solid noise like a tap noise by the battery when u trying to start.
is there a certain procedure how you push start it or it really dosent matter which gear the bike is in?

its like a tap noise coming from behind the battery.
but if the battery was dead wouldnt the motor crank when you jump it .

How long have you been riding? If I were you ( and I say this with as much respect as possible) find someone that knows what they are doing to help you. It is obvious that (although you guys may be good mechanics) neither of you have a clue what you are doing on a motorcycle.

RE: startor problem
I highly doubt you need a different starter. Take the starter off the bike and test it that away (battery to starter). If in fact your starter is bad pull the one off your old motor and do a swap. Your starter is not trying to turn a flywheel from a car, so forged pistons shouldnt do a big number on your stock starter. The tapping sound might be your starter relay, but a constant tapping would indicate a dead battery. Try push starting like explained above, if that doesnt start the bike it might not be just your starter. I push start mine in second and slam down on the seat so the tire wont slide instead it makes it spin. Try these things first, like to refer to these steps as troubleshooting and im not trying to be a smart ***, just trying to help.
