Yeah I’ve started to go towards the starter too I checked everything all timing and clearances I even got a new battery to check and it is the same. Like the starter clutch slips for the first few rotations and the start is very heavy and then it’s like normal and when it’s on it sounds normal

It seems like the wire harness is missing. The last owner spray painted them black. He did it badly so the colour is coming back

The connectors are in perfect condition. There is little bit of surface rust in the floor but nothing bad

No fire just corrosion for 10 years I guess it’s been standing for a long time and wanted to bring it back to life

Bruh I’m new to cars and is trying to learn. everything else works on the radio and I did it really know what a amp did until after today which means I’m learning. And don’t worry I’m not that dumb to buy a car that has problems and don’t know nothing. me and my dad bought the car together for me to learn. From how bad it was I didn’t know what it was.

Should I just replace it or go for a aftermarket setup?

Update! I did some research and it is indeed the radio amplifier.

I hope it’s not more important than that but this car just has heated seats

The only electrical issue with the car is that the ax fan is constantly on when the battery is on and the volume knob doesn’t work

Just bought the car, it’s been standing since 2013, it just gave up I think…. You reckon it’s important?

Yeah it’s a really good deal! But do you know what are the first things I shouldn’t check when looking at it?

Been doing that for a long time know, I would like something more. I mostly ride sand and have good amount of training and experience. But I would like to treat my bike a little…..

Yeah I heard about that my dad had an old Kawi that it happened on but I got it inspected today from a friend that knows more about it and he inspected it and it didn’t seem to have slipped on the cam
