Help////////////
I am getting a chatter on the decompression solenoid when the key comes on. I am including a pic of the input coming to the solenoid. Once I hit start and engage the starter it goes to pure and solid 11.5V DC.
My questions:
1) Is this chatter wrong? (I think it is.)
2) Does anyone else's bike do this?
3) I am beginning to suspect the source of the power which I believe is the ignition module. What do you think?
4) I replaced the solenoid and bent the spoon to ensure full push. Any other thoughts?
5) I am concerned about the voltage. I have not yet put a battery into it. I am using a big charger for power right now.
Background: I picked up this 2003 1600 RS bike after a carb fire which took out the center of the bike. I am well along on the bike rebuild and am including some progress pics. Finally, the bike is slow spin on start. I have bypassed the relay, rebuilt the starter and check wire continuity.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I am almost out of ideas...
