So, I've been reading and becoming incredibly paranoid about breaking my motor from this. I have a question...
I'm 98% positive my starter has kickbacked twice on me. (1999)
Since then, I've started it and driven it... a LOT. Seems fine.
Can my starter have kicked back and not broken anything?
Am I running on borrowed time?
Or was this some other loud clunk comming from my motor when it failed to start cuz the battery was low?
I will eventually upgrade to an '03+ system just don't have the cash at the moment.
Have you come to any conclusions?
I have bought the stuff that should eliminate the damage but i think i have a bit more clunking sometimes and it seems a bit slower to start. Now i´m starting the suspect the clutch again, can´t say i´m enjoying the bike so far.
