Default New starter jammed???
I just put a Drag Speciality high torque starter in my Softail. Worked great for tow days then went to start it today and after turning over a couple times I heard a clunk sound and then the starter just clicks. Like the jack shaft got jammed in the drive gear. Any ideas what happened??
