E-starter problem

I need advice on what to do with my mc coz my e-starter can't do the job..Mods are 60mm faito block, faito turbo cams, yypang valve spring.. I'm using GS battery..I took out the starter motor and it was working perfectly..I think i need more battery power..When i bought the battery it did work for about 2 weeks pero hirap yung battery talaga..What can i do to make it work? Can i add another battery? tia!

you dont need more battery power, you need more cranking starter power. the stock starter is weak for a big displacement engine.

doc gab, any idea what starter that best suits to big displacement engine?
at the moment i dont. i too have been looking for one for the last three years. kick starting has already been second nature, so get used to it until a forumer may share that they have one...

i hope rrgs would produce a motor starter for our sniper/x1r for 150cc to 250cc engines :D

finding a bigger starter is not the problem! the main problem is fitting that starter in this tight narrow space where the stock starter lies. i tried retrofitting a mio big starter but it wouldnt fit due to the narrow space!! unless i rebuild the centercase for it to fit.

or the same dimensions of the OEM starting housing but a different or hi performance inside parts...i dunno if rewinding is applicable or with the same concept as what we did in the dynamos of the tamiya..replacing the magnet and wires..I HOPE..

suggestion, look for other brand of valve spring ;) or ask macoolet re. of yypang valve spring.

hahaha that's the question now..along A. bonifacio road,there's a lot of starter repair shops,maybe they know how to increase the capacity of OEM internal parts of a e-starter to carry the load of a higher displacement engine..for me,i have no avail of this anymore since my starter gears are already gone leaving just the motor itself with a defective teeths on its rod..my only chance to have an e-starter is when an aftermarket is already available..or maybe a conversion will be done,e starter from bigger displacement engines,r15?or a 250cc bigbike..cruisers..hay it's getting farther..if there's one modification that i want to be done in my bike,this starter modification is the first thing i want for now..i can't wear my favorite beach walk flip flops hahaha

hahaha why me?or Gerry told you that my bike was the last man standing in it's batch with a yy pang valve spring on it's head..maybe the respect for the parts is paying off..coz even if it was just the valve spring that is replaced,i'll see to it that i break it in first for about 100-200 kms...when my vixion kit is installed,i am much worried on my head than on my block,i even run 20kmh after leaving Gerry's shop and they are laughing at me..then 1 full tank of blaze,i increased to 40kmh..hehehe..then after that birit to the max...
