Default starter issues

WHY WON'T MY POSTS COME THROUGH?! Let me try again
&nbsp\\;
replaced my stock HD starter with&nbsp\\;a high torque unit that I bought on&nbsp\\;eBay from a guy called
bikerhaven72501 and I'm on my 3rd one! Anyone else experience any problems with these starters? It supposedly has a 1 year warranty but the guy won't even respond to me. I have a high compression engine but I'm getting sick of these crap starters. Anyone have any better manufacturers? Stay away from this guy by the way.

No comment on the bikerhaven starter,

other than to ask - why not go back to stock,
and add compression releases??

I'm running at 11:1 with stock starter and no issues.

What comp ratio are you at??

I thought about doing that and rebuilding the stock HD starter. What do you have for a compression release system?
