Hello everyone! Cyriel is my name and last night I bought a Honda VF1000F from my neighbor. It does not run but gets 12V, Dash turns on and when I use the starter button the relais relais clicks and goes crazy. It seems like a short. I've been troubleshooting for the last 4 hours and it turns out that the starter motor gets 12V but even on the wrong side! I've taken it apart and it seems that it was super dirty and not in great inside shape. After rebuilding the Startmotor it still has issues. I'll have to buy another one, any suggestions? As you can see in the last 2 photos, I'm missing a part that hold the brush in its place. Not sure if this gives the short? Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G950F met Tapatalk
Welcome! Great introduction post inculding a photo of your nice looking 1000. I hope that you are able to sort out the problems and are able to ride it soon.
Thank you! I've done a few things! Tested the startermotor and it's really broken! -So ordered a vf 750 one, as they have 4 brushes instead of 2 and it was brand new for €70 including shipping to Amsterdam. - painted the windscreen again with wrinklepaint. - painted the logo and covered it and repainted the surface. Waiting for the starter to come in! Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G950F met Tapatalk
