Starter Motor.
« on: April 11, 2011, 07:06:32 PM »
Just aquired a sweet looking 126 650 air cooled. absolutely loving it so far.
but is it normal for the starter to stay engaged for a short while after releasing the lever?
Maybe the bendix spring needs cleaning.

Welcome to the Forum.
It should stop as soon as you release the lever, Check the cable is not sticking, If that's O.K. try a squirt of wd40 on the lever on the starter motor :thumbup
