You're going to take a second video? Did you post the first one?
Just because your battery is new and your starter has been rebuilt doesn't mean they are any good, with the rebuilt motor and correct compression now the old solenoid and wires may not be up to the task. Have you made all your connections shinny and tight?

Battery Battery Battery Must be good and charged!
If all else fails push start the thing!

You cant get this kind of quality entertainment on cable tv! :woohoo:

yes i posted the old one last year but i worked on the motor since then and put the motorcycle up for winter.

I had to replace to pistons the first 2010 year i had the bike after and had the two valve replaced in cylinder 3 and 4 too. After two years and after 10,000 miles later. last year i noticed that two of the intake valves was bent and i figure it would be best just to rebuild the whole top motor. Then after the rebuild it has problems turning over now like it would turn once or twice then stop start clicking for a few seconds then start turn over again. I torque everything to the manuals spec.

All I'm doing is replacing the heading gasket with a stock one.

If you got those kind of compression numbers reusing an old head gasket you need to buy some lottery tickets! :woohoo:

If you feel the need to replace the head gasket, go ahead put a new one in it. Put two if you think it will help. When you are done, post again and I'm sure someone will help you fix your starter problem.

I understand what everyone's saying the compression where it needs to be i can change out the cables to the starter tomorrow after work.

Thanks for the help i well check everything again and try to finish cleaning the carbs too.

To the wireman its not the original head gasket i it replaced in 2010 when a piece of melt got suck into cylinder 3 and 4. That bent the intake valve on 3 and bent 3&4 exhaust valve plus mess up the piston rings in those cylinders after all that motorcycle run fine without problems.

So if you pulled the head off at some point and reinstalled same used head gasket and got those numbers,I say buy lotto tickets! :laugh:

yeah i know what you mean. i never play the lotto tickets, but i do get lucky alot.

Check ur grounds. Your issue is def starter related

Well i brought a new starter cable put it on the motorcycle after cleaning the connections on the battery plus solenoid and try to start it the bike did the same problem.

Then i change the ground cable to the battery to motor and the problem when away.

Thanks guys with the help!

Now all i have to do is clean the carbs and sync them can't wait to get it on the road again.

Thats great news :laugh:

Now arent you glad you didnt pull the head off

In the future it pays to start here,( And listen to 650 Ed ) He knows all, No Kidding.
Had to tease you at least alittle, but Very happy you got it sorted out
