Just purchased this bike, and it did run... but now it will not start.........will not turn over. Got New Battery, still will not turn over, just "CLICK" Took starter off, and opened it up. Found that the two magnets each broke in half, and each half was loose. So I crazy glued the loose halves back inside, after cleaning all sufaces. Brushes were very dirty as well, and cleaned everything with electric parts spray cleaner. Put starter back together again, and put it back on the bike. Still will not turn over, just "CLICK" Going to take starter off again, and check all connections, and do a bench test to see if it turns.
Any help, or suggestions on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Um ... I think you are missing the point of the newsgroup. It would be useful for you to share your experience. These groups don't work without answers to the questions posed, even if the original poster answers his own question ... grin!
And don't worry about exposing a mistake ... I think I'm the only one I know who has NEVER made one.
