Hi all,
I am occasionally hearing a noise after the engine starts from my starter motor - it does not happen every time but it does happen....which PRESUMABLY means that the starter motor needs servicing/replacing... (unless it is normal for a starter motor to be noisy 1 out of every 5-7 startups). its strong and the start is immediate
1. is it at all possible to know when the motor is nearing the end of its life?:
2. Is it difficult for a ham fisted idiot to remove it from the bike? i have basic tools etc
2. Is there anyone who sells reasonably priced units for replacement? I have researched the guides to strip and maintain and basically I have no hope of doing it myself properly....
many thanks
Reuben
