Should I replace this starter ring gear?
« on: November 07, 2010, 09:45:48 PM »
In the process of upgrading to a six speed.  Pulled the guts out of the primary and found a few teeth missing from the ring gear.  Looing for opinions on if I should replace it.

Unfortunately you should Matt.  It won't get better.  You're in there now.  Now is easier than sometime on the side of the road away from home when it's knocked teeth off the starter or there's not enough left for the drive to effectively engage.

Short answer yes.

That is what most 04-05 CVO ring gears look like.

There are a few repalcement options for starter pinion and ring gears sets.

Just thought of something else Matt.  While it's apart take advantage of the opportunity to eyeball down inside the basket.  They will fail sometimes.  Will often show cracks before they come apart.

Absolutely, change the pinion gear while your at, better yet do the 10/84 upgrade and it will start better too.

Was starting just fine. Never would have known unless I had opened her up.

Well, you have inspired me into action. Just as a precaution i just ordered this assembly to keep on my shelve from surdyke.com.   There was coupon for  Free shipping last night.    ;D    Seemed cheap enough for an entire clutch pack.   Im thinking I will ride it till start seeing some symptoms, then replace it.

How did the pinion gear look?  does it need replacement too?

Just check your drain plug next time you change your primary fluid.  That little magnet does a good job of playing tooth fairy.
