have the 79/80 xs250 ,the starter motor wont kick the motor over , sounds like it cant spin fast enough to kick the motor over and other times it just seems to just throw out , different set up to the xs650 where the culprit was the wish bone spring ,presume its the same starter as the 360 and 400 so is this a common prob and where should i go looking ,this is fairly importent to me as with dodgy legs cant kick it over , has a healthy battery and po said always been that way in the 5 yrs he owned it no matter what he tried ... also best place to find parts for the 250
