Hmmm. Could be, but it's hard to tell. Once warm the engine starts up instantly. Kicking it will certainly generate higher rpm than the electric starter.
Could it be a slipping clutch? I still haven't changed the clutch, since the store ordered the wrong one, but I don't want to get into that...
Can anyone share a manual that is for the model with the electric starter? I could only find manuals for the models that don't have an electric starter.
Thx

Right. I bought it like this and it's not a big enough issue to actually spend too much time and effort on it.
The friction plates are way more important to fix.

Okay, so I tried boosting it, but I get the same effect. No improvement. I'm starting to think the idea that it's a restarter instead of a starter maybe valid. I took a look at the manual, but it doesn't even show the electric starter.
Now it starts with the kick-starter. The electric starter...
It's not as simple as connecting booster cables to the battery terminals. This bike has tiny terminals that is hard to connect anything too, except for the bike's connector. I will try using some spare wires. I'm sure I will be able to find some wire that will fit.

I sanded all the terminals I could and I inspected all the wires. I don't see any sign of corrosion, but this is what I thought of myself. I'm going to try the boost tomorrow and I will probably take it from there.

Hi. So here's where I am with this. I checked the valves and their good. Just to cover all my basis, I checked the spark plug. It turns out that most of the time there's no spark when I use the electric starter. The sparks are good when using the Kickstarter.
Any ideas?

Thanks. You beat me with your response. I will try to get my bike's battery on it somehow. Maybe directly to the starter as your suggesting.
I also put the battery on the charger again. It was drained now from all the trying.

Hi Taxinan62,
Which, valve are you talking about? The one in the engine on top of the cylinder or do these bikes have a valve in the exhaust system?
