Default Starter grinds
When I try to start my night train the starter just grinds. I just had a new starter clutch installed 2 years ago because of this same problem. I have a big bore kit and was thinking of putting in a high output starter. How difficult is it to replace and where can I get a good one that won't break my bank?
