Posted: 22:01 - 04 Jul 2011 Post subject: Starting problem with my suzuki s bandit 1998 |
|

Hi I hope this I am correct with this, I am a new member and the rules are quite daunting, place in correct place, check your spelling, think or your khama etc etc, well here goes.
I have a suzuki bandit s bandit 1200 1998, it failed me at the weekend, thought it was the starter motor, when removed I held it in my hand and tried it, it seemed to work fine, felt inside the hole for the ring gear to check this, I think this is where I have a problem, something feels loose and incorrect here, does the starter engage another cog/gear to engage the ring gear, I feel inside and turn a cog/gear that is very loose and not engaging the ring gear, as I see it I need to take off the side panel but clearly would like some advice as I see a gasket and know the clutch runs in oil, so if I remove this side panel will I need to drain the whole engine oil, I would need to order another gasket. Can anyone offer some advice. ____________________ Bikers are a better breed |

This is the starter clutch 'fiche, the gear on the end of the starter engages with no 1 then the main ring gear, the nut shown is the one that can come loose and lets everything spin on the tapered shaft. If you do take the cover off and everything is loose on the shaft smooth if with emery/wet & dry then loctite fhe shaft and the nut which should be torqued up to 150nm. It's better in the long run to use a proper gasket not sealant as there's always the chance you squeeze the excess into the oilways which will cause problems in the future.

One last thing before you start stripping, your battery is good I take it?? make sure by using a jumpstart just to prove beyond doubt it isn't lack of cranking power. ____________________ I used to be indecisive but now I'm not quite so sure. |
