So I was walking out to my garage yesterday morning to get my bike and go to work. I got to thinking that I only had to work a few hours and could swing by the dealership after work. (Been looking at fz6r's) Went to start my bike and the starter would whine but not turn over. At work I was trying to think of all the posibilites; starter, starter clutch, goats? It's an 07 with 5,000 miles so it cant be bad right? Got home hoping it was the starter since that would be the cheapest/easiest fix.  Starter was fine. Next I broke the engine down expecting to see something laying in the bottom of the case, nothing. Everything looked great. Even had my dad come out to see if he saw anything out of the ordinary, nothing. The only thing I could think of was that the nut holding the flywheel on was loose. It was barely more than finger tight. Put the guts back together making sure to tighten the bolt on the crankshaft. Hit the starter once and it turned over. The only thing that was wrong was the nut was loose. So now I'm waiting for the gasket I ordered to come in to put my bike back together. I think my bike knows thinking of getting rid of her.
