It's always a good idea to put a cable tie around the starter solenoid to stop that little white connector going adrift. My 4s has the same type...
Cheers@JR45, that's a good suggestion but I found a crowd online called Electrex World who do a pattern motor for £99. I rang them up said I was...
Well, I spoke to soon! The bloody thing stopped again. I thought poor cold starting was due to fecked plugs, as they were in there for more than...
Yeah, but I'm well 'ard me :)
Yeah, well mine looks like a shed too, but goes like the clappers :) A
It lives! And starts a damn sight easier than it used to. All reassembled, serviced and only 6 well nuts replaced :) Rock on! A
Indeed, it is a labour of love! I was the same when I got the 4s, it took quite some time to get it right. However, I persisted and six years...
Finally got a chance to sort this out. Got a starter motor brush kit from Wemoto and, after a bit of faffing, got it sorted and back on the bike....

Superb. Love to see machines like this ridden as they were intended. A
Whip out the tacho and you'll find three little brass screws behind it. Give them each a little nip up. But it is also worth taking out the pickup...
UPDATE: turns out my main issue is a buggered starter motor. I bypassed the solenoid and there isnae a kick out of the starter. Brush kit on...
Cheers Derek, appreciate the info. Will look into it.
Thanks for that. It does seem to be a starter motor issue. The post on the starter motor did seem to have some play in it but it definitely did...
Right, bit of an issue with my 2002 ST4s (996). I thought yet another starter solenoid had died but it seems the issue is more than that. When I...
The right hand front wheel bearing is completely exposed and even without using things like power washers, the grease seems to leach out and leads...
Sorry to hear that mate. Been there with the top end. A
I had, an, ahem... incident about 47k miles that necessitated pulling the heads. Compression was good and the rings and bores were fine, so my...
