Starting issue

Agove · 09-21-2019, 12:20 AM

I just picked this 07 up today with 1700 miles. The battery was dead, so I pulled a known good battery from both my gsxr, and my sv650 and they both had the same results. When I hit the start button it sounds like the starter is turning, but not turning over the engine. After about a second it slows down and stops like there is a load on it. I pulled the spark plug, put the bike in 5th gear and verified the engine is free and turns over. I’ll try and get a video in the morning. Possible bad starter?
