Well, after tinkering in my spare time i have my 2001 650 restarting on the button for the first time. I had stator rewound first, this was a problem on this bike from the get go i think because it was always a bear to start before. also i have a r6 starter and updated battery. the decompressor was also replaced. I am sure glad ive had a 2006 fe-650 to ride while messing with this one. I have been on a mission to make my 01 start on the button one day and i finally made it happen. So older berg owners out there, it can be done. dont lose hope and research all the knowledge on this site, you can do it!
