Estart delete

[GG221]

I?m tired of chasing demons with this starter. Had it working perfectly, now it?s not. So I?m tired of spending time and energy chasing this thing in circles when the kick starter will work in one kick every single time. So...

I need a stator cover that doesn?t have a bendix cover also. Will the stator cover for a 2015-2017 fit?

Can I remove the battery ?

The big gear outside of the stator that the bendix gear hooks up to...can that be removed or is it needed for weight distribution?

Anybody want to buy a starter?

Yes, can be done.
Just buy the cover from the bike without the e-start.
Pinion gear is bolted on.

Battery will not be needed with estart gone, correct?

I was wondering if the weight of the pinion gear is needed to balance the stator or if it?s fine to just remove it.

 

[gasgasman]

The battery is not needed for the bike to run.

Removing the pinion won't affect the flywheel balance.

I have a cover and a capacitor off a 2014 on motor that will suit but I am in Australia. Where are you?

 

[GG221]

I?m in the US. So I will need to add a capacitor because of removing the battery?

Yes, my 2015 without estart has one

You will need to remove the gear for clearance with the new cover.

No it is not needed to run the bike. I have run mine several times with no battery while I was waiting for my new battery to arrive.

what capacitator do you have on your bike? i would like to remove the battery to save some weight

I have the OEM one. Looks like this:

Part number EE40300GG-CAB-1

When measured with my Fluke multimeter, its around 2000uF
