Bike info:
Custom built softail
V111 motor
Ultimate six speed trans
All balls 1.4kw starter
Automotive start button and starter solenoid button
Bdl open 3 inch primary
I have been having an issue with starting ever since I put the new motor in the bike. I thought it was my acr’s not functioning but they seem un-related. When I hit the automotive start button or solenoid starter button the engine turns over and stalls for a second or two, then it will spin again.
The battery voltage drops to seven bolts when it does this. And it does this regardless of the battery that’s hooked up to it. I have tried three other batteries (2 new ones and a know good one out of my Dyna). The voltage drop is the same with all of them.
I pulled the stator rotor and checked for any type of binding on the engine case with negative results.
If it matters it does more of a stall cold rather than hot. My battery cables are in good condition and are the nice bendable terry components ones. Also I have a secondary ground cable going to the starter bolt, which didn’t and doesn’t make any difference. Any ideas gentlemen?
