$5.68 for a new starter relay. What a deal! Worked great for a day.
This morning I started up the bike, and the starter kept cranking.
Quickly turned off the key. The engine shut down, but the starter kept cranking.
How fast can you disconnect a battery?
It seems the choices for parts on our old bikes are:
a 40 year old used part. (Unreliable)
a new Chinese universal part. (Unreliable)
a NOS part. (Pricey, hard to find, still 40 years old)
a new or used part from a different make or model newer bike.
I like the idea of replacing the ignition coil with the coil from a GL1500, but used its still a 20+ year old part.
What would be great is a list of parts from newer bikes that would work in an XS650.
