cranking power

[pat the rat]

i started my phazer today,started right away but it seems that it aint cranking fast enough,just wondering if i only need to charge the battery some more . anyone else notice that.

mine does great so far. Had it out all night 2 days in a row at 0 degrees but with windchill -12 or -13 and it started within 7 lr 8 seconds and turned over with plenty of power.

They sound like they're not cranking fast but its not a weak battery. Yammy runs a small starter to save weight, and that combined with the auto decompression makes it sound like it's barely turning over. Nothing to be worried about. Once you get some miles they also start quicker. Even after sitting for the night mine starts is about 3 sec now.

yeah, Pat, break in helps...i've only got 30kms on mine, but it's getting better and better

it always starts right up,just when it cranks it felt like it could turn faster but i guess its normal.those things soud really good

 

[ptrudel]
