I keep reading that some people with 00's and 02's are having starter failure issues. Anyone with an 01 having this issue? My 01 only has 540 miles but I am concerned about this issue happening down the line (although my bike has no symptoms). So far I have picked up these three rules:
1. When starting your Busa engage the starter button for at least 5 seconds (i.e. don't just bump it).
2. Don't let off the starter switch and then immeadiately hit it again.
3. Keep your battery completely charged.
Anyone care to make a comment on these rules (i.e. their validity)? What else, besides these three rules, can I do to prevent this starter failure (and possible case breakage) from occuring to my 01 Busa? I would rather spend the money now than wait for this problem to strike me out on the backroads.
Thanks
