sb50 bystarter

Post by bjdipert269 »

What would happen if the bystarter was to go bad on a sb50? And is there a way test it?

Not cool it was a legit question.

If you apply power to it it should extend very slowly.

The manual has one way of testing and this is another: copied from the wiki

Now that it is complete, push it back on the carb, screw on the clamp, and try it out! One way to test it before you install it on the bike; hold the yellow lead on the positive terminal and the green lead on the negative terminal of the spree's battery. It is better if you do this carefully with some alligator clips, but if you are patient, you should(very slowly) see the needle valve move outwards as long as you hold it there(to an extent of course). If it moves, you know it's operating good; if it doesn't, then either you didn't install it correctly, or you need a new by-starter.

good luck

If it was bad, would that cause it to not want to start all the time??
