skullarms Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Hi all, First of all thanks to everyone who has helped, I finally got my TR1 started!! She fired eventually and idled great, no exhausts, flames shooting out!!! When i stopped her and tried to re-start her, the starter motor (i think) was making a whiny noise, then chugged the bike over a little, then whiny noise again, like it was trying to spin it but couldnt! Any ideas all you amazing guys?? Thanks in advance Andy ps, does the virago exhaust fit the TR1 the 535 or the 920 maybe? struggling to find an exhaust for her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I think the starter dog has gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator YamaHead Posted August 27, 2008 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2008 Could also be a starter solenoid issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it is solenoid, but you could test it by hooking the starter directly to the battery (by-passing the solenoid). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
