Starter removal

Post by Ageing Rotarian »

Gents, has any been able to ease the starter off without taking the engine out?
Took the bike out today after a starter refurbishment and have a leak coming from around the starter motor/mounting bolts. For obvious reasons don’t won’t to take the whole thing out again but if I have I’ll have to.
Cheers

Roy,

I'm talking Commander, it might be just possible to get the starter off its spigot but I doubt not enough to change the O Ring, with the starter in place I found the bottom bolt difficult to get at.

If its leaking around the bolts would some gasket sealer help on the threads of the bolts?

Sorry I cant be of much more help.

Tony
