Starter Motor rebuild

[no-h2o]

While I await the confirmation of my supporting membership, wondering if anybody can tell me if the starter motor can be safefly removed from my 1980 Intruder without removing the engine? Access is limited, but I think I can get all the bolts out. It just clicks, and the drive will not engage. I've got 12volts going to it though. Hopefully emery cloth to the drive will fix it up.

  it will be tight quarters   but it should come out.

You an get it out without removing the engine but its tough to get at the bottom one. You should have a email about your membership that i sent to the paypal email i got.

Thanks guys. Got it out with just a little bit of lost skin on the knuckles. Rebuilt and good to go ....
