Hello everyone, how hard to change out the starter? It seems I have to remove the cv belt system to get to the back cover removal just to get to starter?
No you don't have to take off the cvt cover BUT you do need to loosen the exhaust and it is easier to take off some of the plastic and insulation panels on the seat frame. MAKE sure you Loctite the 10mm bolt that holds the starter in as the reason mine went bad was it came loose (one of the very few things I didn't Loctite when I got it) Make sure you have a good mirror or a camera when getting at the bolt as it is under the starter and you can't get your hand or fingers in there
Yes thank you. I did this a couple months ago and also changed my sprag clutch which was also a problem due to the starter damaging it. Im now using one from a can am.
