Hello all,I need some help with my starting problem on my GL1200--1985A.Just rebuilt
carbs.I knew I might have a weak battery,but after installing carbs connecting all lines & Ect.Pushed the starter button,engine spins over 8-10 times and,yes battery dead.All it would do was click the starter solonoid.Replaced solonoid with one from my brother's 1984 GL1200 and his new battery.Still have the same problem.Solonoid
just clicks engine won't turn over.Have cleaned battery cable rechecked to be sure they were tight.Anybody have any ideas.Could it be the starter and if so can it be removed without removing the engine?Thanks for any help.James
