Took my scout Sixty out today for a spring run and all was good until I stopped to get some fuel. I pulled up and got the fuel and after a few words with a Harley rider, I hit the starter and bike turns over just great. It goes thru a start cycle and dies. No big deal, I just turn key off and then back on to make sure it was primed. Okay, did the same thing again....it did the same thing. I have a new battery too. On the 3nd. try it turned over about 1/2 a turn and started. The Harley dude looked at me and I looked at him and we both give the " good on you " sign. I rode on home and after parking it in the garage, I let it sit a few mins. and it started it again on the second try. I have a April 2017 vin I have over 7,655 miles on it. Never had this happen before. and it made me start thinking I need a new starter. I was thinking that the starter it came with would be fine. Could it be something else ? Can someone help me ? It was very embarrassing. I have always bragged about these new Indians. HELP I am worn out going to the dealer all the time. God Bless.
