What about the different starter motor you tried was it definitely a known good one?quarterback wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 10:05 pm Hi folks.
I done the compression testing that long ago now that I can't remember whether I'd to put a booster on it or not. I do know I got very close to book spec.
With regards to MCCT - yeah, fitted them about 6 years ago. Bike was bought with smashed valves, so I hope to avoid repeating it!
I've cleaned up the earth point & bolt. Multimeter shows negligible resistance across the earth lead, but thinking that maybe I bridge straight to a different part of the engine with a jump lead to see if there's any difference.

I have come across a starter motor for the Storm which was having starting problems, it turned out to be the insulator for the main live bolt was broken, it appeared to be broken from the terminal bolt turning when tightening the nuts on it. The insulator sits inside the s/motor,
