Starting issue ?

[darrsi]

Am I right in thinking that your bike turned over normally but wouldn’t fire up with this duff starter relay?


Thanks for the reply!

It was unknowingly breaking apart, so it started misbehaving at first, mainly with trouble starting, then i was on my way to work and everything electrical cut out. But this was during cold weather too, so if the battery is low when when sets in that can cause starting issues too, but i wouldn't have guessed the starter relay to be honest, even more so as it had recently been replaced.
I had replaced it, but bought a cheap one that just fell apart, which i found weird as it doesn't even move anywhere the way it sits beside the battery?
Not something i had much knowledge of though, i must've just bought the first one i saw online.
Spent more money on another new one and got it delivered very quickly to the bike shop who got it up and running straight away for me, as my bike is my only transport.
