Inexpensive Starter Replacement

[Edit: PLEASE look at the first post . . . updated the info there.]

Hi Wayne, hey I got the 1.4 from starter place in Georgia and it did not fit on my bike.Any ideas? I have a 04' R3

The original post gives the wrong part number, and was never corrected. It isn't mentioned until the 3rd page. I also bought the wrong starter.

Before you buy a replacement starter make sure you know which type you should be looking at.
The Rocket requires a ccw direction motor. not all the part numbers listed where for such,
I first purchased a 17794 starter this is a brand new after market product not a denso unit.it is cw which is no good, and the bolts do not line up,
the second unit i got was a 17610 which is ccw and bolted straight in .It is also a rebuilt after market unit. i think the denso unit is 280-0174.

The 17610 starter is starting well and seems strong,time will tell. I can always go back to the stock one if it fails but i have heard good things so far.

Thanks Wayne if you had not told us about a bigger starter i for one may not have looked.
Thanks Scott for getting these parts shipped over to me .

Yes, I went and read the beginning of the thread, and now am the proud owner of the wrong starter.

Can one of the moderators alter the first post to give the right part number, so more members here don't buy the wrong starter?

Looks like @Joesmoe fixed it for us.

Jim are you just replacing the motor and not trying to use the whole starter?
