The starter motor on my Breva 1100 has stuck! I've given the motor a knock with a piece of wood and it started! I turned it off and tried to start again but it is again stuck! Any ideas before I get it to a dealer?

Hi.
The starter motor will probably need to be replaced. Check if when you ignite there is voltage at the starter motor contacts. If there is voltage at the motor and motor does not start, the motor may need replacement. Sometimes it is possible to fix the motor replacing brushes and commutator (see Starter Kit, includes x 4 carbon brushes, + x 1 each commutator).
If there is no power to the starter motor, check ignition (start button wiring and grounding), starter relay and ECU connector.
The problem is usually the starter motor.
