  1. Hi, on my solo when i bought it had a 12v 2.9ah lead battery, but since fitting a new starter even with jump leads it seems not to wind over the starter, but now i have a coil problem (new 1 ordered) so nothing works at present, but i'm still in 2 minds to convert over to 18v li-ion or ni cad batteries as should start easier will also save weight.

     

  2. Also if fitting the exhaust you may need to know that the tuned versions of the 210 have a different head and carburetor, i'm sure if you do get a tuned exhaust the difference when fitted will be minimal.

    I dont need to rewind the pull starter with a longer piece of cord - -i simply fix a pulley to the frame and route the existing cord through the new pulley - and it should hopefully be still long enough to have enough length to turn the engine over sufficiently to start it..

     

    Many Thanks .

    By doing this you are possibly relocating the handle further out which in turn will load up the spring, which is not a good idea as will lead to premature failure, You still need to keep the starter under same spring tension but move handle up for easy reach, i understand exactly what you are trying to achieve but IMO you will need to buy a longer pull cord, also buy and fix a pulley wheel to your frame as pictured above, its easy to do you just need to work out total lengths required and buy necessary materials.

    Hopefully this helps and you understand what i'm saying 9_9
