Ok, I've got me a little Cagiva Mito, sweet looking bike...and it finally arrived today via the freight company and:
It won't turn over...I can hear the solenoid click but it seems maybe a the starter motor doesn't want to operate? Or is it more likely a dud solenoid? I took the cover off the solenoid and it looks as if someone has soldered some of it (average job but you can tell its not factory)...anyone help?
And...when I push start it, it revs right up to 6-7K and idles around there (quite roughly). No matter what I do with the idle control knob...however the oil supply knob (right next to the idle knob) is completely missing! Is this my problem? (Obviously need to replace it, but is the high rev problem). I didn't want to run it too long without it?
Can anyone help? I would ask on the Mito forum but it seems to be down?
Cheers
