    Question Reverse starter?

    Anyone know what company, make, & - or model starter is being used on Hannigan's reverse starter system on the RSV's?
    I've got a dead solenoid on mine. Good voltage going in , nothing on the output post feeding the starter itself.
    Looking at the starter it is most likely a foreign car starter, maybe a Honda but knowing what it is used on would make life much easier before going to the auto parts store.

    The T/G reverse is an Hitachi.. Don't know if that helps; I had mine rebuilt a while ago.
    The brushes were shot...At first I thought it was the solenoid..

    Thanks Rino 2. I took it apart and brushes were in excellent condition. The lever that advances the starter gear seemed to be sticking so I cleaned & freed & lubed that up, which made it pop in and out when bench testing it. There still seems to be some resistance in the motor because voltage drops from 14 to about 7 while in cranking mode. One other thing I did find was that the negative battery post terminal was slightly loose. A 1/4 turn of the screw tightened that up good so I'm sure that didn't help matters any either. It's late now so I'll install the starter tomorrow and see how it preforms under a load.

    Larry I emailed you a bunch of stuff to get you started my friend.
    Let us know what the problem was.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Larry , Also make sure the gap is right on the starter gear and main gear as well.

    I'm back in action. After posting my finds late last night I reinstalled the starter this morning. Worked as it should so I feel the biggest problem I was having was a poor ground connection at the battery post. While is was tight enough for the rest of the bikes functions it wasn't good enough for the load the starter put on it. Voltage readings were back to normal as well.
    Larry
    PS: Thanks to Jeff for providing the info on the starter as well. While we don't know what make and model of car of a Chevy starter Hannigan uses they can be gotten fairly easy if needed. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Speedw...lain,2402.html

    Default Re: Reverse starter? Update

    UPDATE on the revere starter.
    After the bike had been sitting a few days I went to move it and had the same problem all over again. Hit the reverse switch once or twice then nothing but dead in its tracks. Rechecked everything again and found no problems with power or connections. Taking a closer look at the starter while hitting the reverse showed some sparks by the starter (had the bike off the ground on my hoist). Then I took a set of jumper cables and put one end on the - post of the battery and the other on the starter itself. Hit the reverse switch and the starter jumped to life and worked every time. . Next I pulled the starter and removed some paint down to bare metal in a couple places where the started made contact . Bolted it all back together and retested it again. Problem solved.
    So the starter itself wasn't getting a good enough ground thru just the mounting bolts but once the surfaces were down to bare metal all was good.
