    After 4 years of tinkering, I sold my 2008 black/red R3T because my wife just couldn't take the cruiser seat anymore. Ended up with a Victory Vision. Ugly and under powered, but great riding bike. I am looking to get back on an R3. Found a used 2011 Blacked out R3 at local dealer with 12k...

    Starting issues.

    When starting cold, no issues. Once the bike is warm, I hear the relay click, but the bike doesn't turn over. I put in gear and release clutch to bump motor to maybe loosen it. When I try starter again, 3 out of 4 times it starts.
