check your ground strap. Not enough current to mash the gear in with enough force perhaps. | ||

I was having that problem along with my HID light going out when starting. Very intermittent. Turns out the negative battery post had broken. It was a Drag Specialties battery with a slot that the actual connect slides in to allow either a top or front connection. The material that holds the connector broke. I'd recommend staying away form this type of battery. | ||

make sure your starter is bolted down tight... they are known to come loose and cause an almost impossible to find oil leak and an ocasional grinding noise when you start your bike if its loose your gonna have to take off the primary cover and use a ballhead allan wrench to get past the teeth on the back of the clutch basket to tighten it down.... |
