Ring gear and freewheel coaxial to the flywheel.
The starter system has a transmission between the motor armature and engine shaft equipped with
freewheel coaxial to the flywheel and torque limiter on the intermediate shaft.
The limiter is calibrated to 10 kgm (100 Nm); this component protects the structure of the engine and
the starter kinematic mechanism in the event of incorrect starting with consequent inverse rotations.
The freewheel is used for a sufficiently silent starting.
The starter control (energised remote control) is slaved to enabling signals by the side stand and the
emergency OFF/RUN switch, which does not allow starting given dangerous conditions.
The starter control circuit is not controlled by the immobilizer system, therefore before insisting on the
starter system, check the consensus of the immobilizer.
In order to check the enabling switches circuit, see the «Electrical system» chapter, whereas to check
the engine shaft control transmission, follow what is described in the «Flywheel and starter system»
chapter.
The starter is sold as a complete part.
Before deciding to replace it, carry out the follow-
ing tests:
1 - Battery
Check the voltage after not running (a few hours):
Voltage >12.5V
Check the density of the electrolyte of each cell:
Bé = 30 ÷ 32
Specific weight: 1.25 - 1.26
YES go to 2 NO go to 3
2 - Make sure the negative terminals (battery neg-
ative and starter negative) are correctly connected
to each other and to the frame.
YES go to 4 NO go to 5
3 - Recharge and if necessary replace the battery.
4 - Connect the diagnostic tester (see chapter "Injection system").
Connect the induction clamp of an ammeter to the positive power supply cable of the starter motor.
Remove the 10A fuse no. 12 (see "fuses" chapter).
Switch in position "ON" with interrupt switch in position "RUN" and side stand raised.
