I am having issues with my 2014 KTM 250 xc-w E starter. It only really ever started for me when I rode it for a while (seemed like the running motor had to charge it up) would never work on a cold start. It would just sit there and crank itself. well now it does not even crank, absolutely nothing when button is engaged. I hooked my battery charger to it and it says "charge complete" I hooked the volt meter to it and it says 11.6 volts. I have a cheap harbor freight battery tender I hooked to it tonight, the tender says not to hook it up if battery is dead (needs to be atleast 12v instructions say) the brushes and stator itself cant be bad already can they? my dads 2006 KTM 450xc cold starts no problem. Any ideas on what the issue could be? It does have a kick starter as well. Also headlight works just fine. only works when motor is running however
