F4i not starting when warmed up

Re: F4i not starting when warmed up
it kinda sounds like the starter clutch to me. had that happen on a quad and once i changed it started perfect every time. pain to get to cause its behind the flywheel. also on my f4i i changed the stator cover and didnt have a gasket so i used liquid gasket now when its hot it cranks a little slower but always starts.

100% not the starter clutch
the starter clutch is bunch of metal pieces that will only let it spin in one direction, if that clutch is bad u will hear the starter motor free spin. or grind against broken metal peices
u push the button and the motor does turn over that eliminates it being the starter clutch rite there.....
in the video all it soundz like it a dying battery ( from the video ) i havent gotten a chance to actually look @ it yet tho.
plus the fact that his bike worked 100% perfectly before the motor swap would eliminate EVERYTHING but the motor and components inside the motor.
the only reason for this swap was a cracked lower case.
Now ya also did the motor swap urself right?? i mean any number of things could have gone wrong while ya put it in crushing sensors cutting wires plus all the things u swapped i mean ****.. could be anything at this point
(liquid gasket is a no no when u have a tiny little oil pickup that can easily get clogged n seize a motor)

a month later lol and here i am
oh and i didnt put the stuntex on this motor so i never took off the oil pan and never had to use gasket maker on the pan. 29th it is bro. ill holla at you next week. where ive waited this long another week or two isnt gonna kill me. i just dont wanna shell out the guap for another motor and then have to go through the hassle of selling this motor if i could avoid it
lemme know if you hit the spot this weekend. ill come out to get some video and just to watch some wheelies coz im bored out of my mind. Re: F4i not starting when warmed up
Re: F4i not starting when warmed up
the wheelies are good lol if I had my bike back with the front brake they would be better but I can do slow sitdowns and standups forever now but I am attempting to get idle wheelies and its a pain in the ***. and I meant what old man roger explained its like the same symtoms I had for my car but I also could be completely off iono. Jimmy said you had a brake bleeder also and were comming out this week. I wanted to ask if there was any possible way you could bring that with you, or help a brother out and swing past cause im not far from him and if anything ill throw you a 20 spot or treat you to some lunch lemme know or PM me
