Posted:Sunday 11 January, 2009 10:15 PM Subject: Re: 1981 Honda CB650C As for the starter not engaging, it might be a problem with your solenoid. It's often just a small electro-magnetic cylinder that pushes the starter drive into the flywheel of the engine. I've seen people fix this by simply knocking on it with a hammer while starting. opening it up and cleaning it/checking for loose connections is probably a better solution. |
