Starter Click, Rocking to move the crank works.

[Tripps]

Swell for our touring friend here h/e I have the 07 r3 classic where do I go? I have had this problem for tooooo long have a 1.4kw starter and am starting to wonder if I should take it back. I previously took starter to a local AIS rebuild shop and have been told starter is fine. Camilla hasn't gotten near the miles she should have & I'm dying to rack them up before turning her over to the next Rocket Master. Rocking the bike does work for me also but @ 69yrs I'm tired of it & am worried that someday it isn't going to work and don't want to call the tow truck buddy to move her again. Nothing against my friend.

I doubled up the ground cable when I installed the 1.4 kw starter, never had a problem, even in 20 degree F weather.

I just installed the two relay starter upgrade for @RocketlllMan . I used these relays from Amazon. They are nice because they have mounting brackets and the bases can be snapped together, plus they have really flexible wires. Makes for a really clean install.

Hello, my name is Allen and I own a R3 for a long time (07), Since I've got it I had the click problem and I'm use to it, so far, but now I want to fix it. Problem that I have is that I moved to Spain from the States and, here, this bikes are not common. Can you please write me back with step by step moves? I want to use Google translate for my mechanic. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon....

This pic is what you are trying to do. See post number 3 in this thread posted by me. That is the closest thing to a step by step I have seen. That's what I used to fix mine. It's not hard to do.
