Hello everyone
New member from Costa Rica Just joined the forum and wanted to say Hi
I recently bought an 86 650cc Savage, not running, supposed to be recently overhauled, however the mechanic did not get it to start.
My findings:
- Starter clutch engaged two way, this one is already solved, replaced with a stronger unit from another bike. - Decompresion Solenoid not working, and and starter relay gone, starter relay replaced by a bigger one, checked the decompression controller (toasted) so I rewired the solenoid to hit at the same time of the starter. - eliminated clutch safety switch, and stand switch - While mounting the clutch starter, I saw the wiring from the pickup coil being kind of loose, just moved them and one of them came apart, all this wiring redone. - Removed the charcoal canister
After a couple of days, I get it to start, know I'm in the process of tune it up, as I think the mechanic that put together the engine did a lousy job, I think it needs a valve calibration, and to retorque the head, (I don't even know if it is torqued to speficication, as I see some minimum oil coming down in between the cylinder and the head)
Will keep posting as I have time to keep working on it, and maybe take it to the street for a few testing down the road
See you later!
