Well, I got my new starter for the SV today. The bike still wouldn’t start. So, I had to do a bit more troubleshooting. I decided I’d crank the engine by hand with a breaker bar to see if it would even turn, and it did. So, I thumbed the starter and once again, it didn’t start – but it did turn a bit!
