so a 96 300ex showed up at my house, friend got it and his mom said nope your not keeping it here so i bough it off him.
well i noticed red grease on the battery terminals, i cleaned them offed, then traced the battery cables positive where the meet up before they go to the starter...both nuts were loose there so i tighten them up. also took the ground and cleaned that off on the battery box.
now before i did all this bike has lights, just didnt crank at all when i pressed start.
so i did all that then traced wire to the starer...noticed it was rigged on backwards ( i havent had a 300 in 2 years so i kinda forget sum stuff. i saw these dark amber colored carbon fiberish washers and the terminal cable was not attached directly to the starter metal. this where i stopped...not sure what the deal is but ill check bikebandit.com. still no start. nothing in the wire harness is unplugged or even cut.
any ideas? yes reverse cables are hooked up and attached. im out of ideas....this e start crap is backwards to me cuz i know know 450r kick start bikes.
lil help!!!!!!!
