Hey there, this is my first bike that ive ever fixed up and im proud to say that its a 95 katana 600! ![Very Happy](https://katriders.com/core/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
Ive been trying to get it started and i just recently rebuilt the starter. I bench tested it to see if it spun and it passed the test. After reinstalling it i tried to start the bike up but only got a clicking noise from the starter relay. I can hear the starter trying to turn the engine over but without any success. Ive tried to bypass the relay and send voltage straight to the starter, but it still couldn't turn it over.
I took the crank case off to try and turn it over by hand to make sure it wasnt seized. It turned over so i know that wasnt the problem. I did notice, however, that the bike wouldnt go into neutral and it only goes through 2 gears. I have a hunch that because the bike is stuck in gear, its too much of a load on the starter so the bike wont start.![Sad](https://katriders.com/core/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
Anyone have any ideas?
