Bike is immaculate, my son rides it easy, and it's always been maintained. I'm at my wits end here. Last ride, he shut it off for a mid trail break. It would not start back up with the electric start, the solenoid just clicked. I dropped in a new battery, no change. The solenoid tested good, but I replaced it anyway with the same result. I pulled the starter and it bench tested fine, but I replaced it anyway. The new starter is experiencing the same issue...it has power when it should, but does not turn when installed. It will fire right up with the kick starter, but I need to solve this problem. Any ideas?

 

Lots of views.....does anyone know if it has a starter clutch?

 

Josh....not much activity on this forum for any DS....I'm not sure who actually made this ATV, but it's probably not Bombardia. If its a CVT trans, then pull the left engine cover on it ( as sitting on the ATV ), the older ones did have a starter clutch. Thats more than likely the issue. And, are you sure its an 08?

 

If it's an 08 shows to have a starter clutch. $121 here. Parts
