This starter is not compatible with my 1971 BMW R60/5. The relay is on the wrong side.

After a recommendation from a fellow Moto Guzzi enthusiast I purchased this starter/solenoid combo.
It fit perfectly ,and for the price if it lasts 10 years you cant go wrong

Guzzi folks: This will work on the older big twins. Bolted up to my 77 LeMans despite the stock starter being 8 tooth. This starter is mis-advertised and is actually a 9 tooth but will mesh fine.
You need to replace one of the neutral switch bolts with a lower profile button head style allen bolt and you need to buy another bolt that matches the top mount bolt for the stock starter to use on the bottom of this new starter.
Turns the bike over faster and draws less power. Also significantly smaller and lighter. I don’t expect it to have the longevity of the stock Bosch.

Replacing is a breeze:
1. Remove the bolts from the plate that holds the footpegs (in blue, this is needed to give you enough room to take out the starter)
2. Remove the electrical connections (in red, the upper arrow indicates the hot wire which is held on by (I think) a 13 mm nut, the lower connection simply pulls off)
3. Remove the two bolts that hold the starter to the gearbox (in yellow)
4. Remove the starter (you may have to use a wrench or pry bar, I pryed near where the green arrow is)
That’s all there is to it. And to install, you simply do the steps in reverse (torque the starter bolts to 22ft/lbs or just “tight plus 1/4th turn”)
I was experiencing issues with my 2004 Moto Guzzi Breva 750. The starter would click, barely turn over, and seem to bog down and get stuck. It smelled of a battery issue – the bike would sometimes start just fine after a long trip but other times, especially after sitting, the starter would barely turn once or twice before *very* rapidly discharging the battery. Finally, one day, after trying to jumpstart my bike, the starter practically caught fire, melting some wires and producing that “uh oh” smoke.
Long story short, it was a starter issue the whole time. I disassembled the starter and found metal shavings and evidence of slow-onset catastrophic failure within the starter motor.
Picked this DB Electrical unit up after coming across it on the company’s website. It appears to be made exactly to OEM specs and sounds much better/stronger than the Valeo starter the came with the bike.
Certainly a great value and a super simple DIY money-saver.
**Please note, MANY Guzzis also have problems with the starter relay – don’t forget to look into that as well.

Had to replace the Solenoid right off the bat, but other than that been working ok.

So far so good, the starter seems to work fine.
Ihad a problem installing it on a 1994 Guzzi California motor, the starter solenoid was hitting the gearbox neutral switch bolt.
I fixed the issue by removing a washer from the bolt.
Otherwise, all was ok and the starter works fine.

This is advertised as an 8-tooth starter. I was willing to give it a try. Before installing, I counted 9 teeth on the drive gear (which actually matched mine from my 2002 V11 LeMans). Bolted right up and operated like new! Pleasantly surprised!
