Starter Clutch - Interchangeability

Discussion in 'Technical Help' started by ST3phen, Jan 4, 2022.

  1. The starter clutch on my Multi Enduro 2016 has broken - the PLASTIC cage holding the clutch parts has disintegrated - is there a METAL cage alternative?

  2. If you visit a local bearings supplier/specialist with the part, they will be able to match it and supply what you need
     
  3. I have an old metal cage one from my 1098 - if you want I can send it to you/measure it to see if at least it’s the same dimensions?
     
  4. I don’t necessarily subscribe to the “plastic bad, metal good” view, as these cages are under a low load, and should be sacrificial when something else major fails in the assembly, and reduces damage to a number of other areas where metal shrapnel is bad for short and long term. Like the main bearings.
    That said, this is likely to be the replacement item - but do your own checks.

  5. @ST3phen, do you remember the job that you do to remove the sprag clutch back at those days? was it a nasty job or an easy one? Thanks.
