Hello all and a starter motor query for a newbie
Posted: Fri Jun 07, 2019 8:23 pm
Im new to the group, so "hello" despite my 1999 R1100S providing sterling service for 3 years
Im just about to fit a new starter motor -mine's died- but for the life of me I cant seem to be able to remove the starter-motor plastic cover. It's silver, loose and is shown the Motorworks site here:
https://www.motorworks.co.uk/vlive/Shop ... 0_30_JA_75
Fourth one down - ELT42383
Ive got the Haynes manual but needless to say it shows the other type, with an obvious screw-fixing, not my type that doesnt!
One of you R1100S gurus tell me how to remove the cover without breaking tangs off or owt? It's a fairly fiddly fit underneath the LH fuel injector. Does it simply pull off or is there a hidden fixing I cant see
TIA
Simon
