Secondhand - thats it. You won't find any cheaper brand new. Starter Motors are high ampage 12v motors, and they don't come cheap and never have, other than from scrapyards off broken bikes.ok i jus got hold of honda dealers an they want to charge me R4700/ 335 pound for a new starter motor, if any one in SA that knws were i can it for lets say ALOT CHEAPER pls let me knw

Find a motor rewind service in your area... should be plenty of companies who can do it - will be MUCH cheaper to take your starter motor in and get it rewound or brushes replaced (depending what exactly is wrong with it) than to replace it.
I assume you're 100% sure it's a faulty starter motor and not faulty electrics or something else?
ya i knw that but wat happens when i get the hona dealers an then i need to leave.... there is no hill for to bump it on... so i would rather play it safeDon't NEED a starter motor... just bump start it...
lol!! yea my badElectrication? That sounds painful!
Sorry, just had to say it! We all know what you mean!
hey its cul me an my dad send the hole day fixing the starter motor, we replaced the brushers an cleaned it out but thx anyway... i still dnt knw why they charge u R800 for a starter motor an charge me R4700, i think they got confused between a motor an starter motorHey Guys (My beans have clamed down) ;-)
I just phoned Honda Centurion here in Pretoria. They quoted me R856.23 excluding vat for a starter motor.
It will take two weeks delivery as they don't have stock on the shelves right now but they can order one.
Let me know if you want me to order it and courier it to you? Maybe pay Honda directly and I will pick it up and arrange the courier side of things.

Doubt it as the starter motor should have a clutch mechanisam to engage it to the engine to turn it over, then when you let go of the starter button it disengages.hey its cul me an my dad send the hole day fixing the starter motor, we replaced the brushers an cleaned it out but thx anyway... i still dnt knw why they charge u R800 for a starter motor an charge me R4700, i think they got confused between a motor an starter motorbut any way my bike is up an runnimg again
... jus one question, when the starter was not working i bumped the bike an went for a ride an i got like 130km/80mph out of it an when we fixed the starter i only got like 115km/71mph out of it, could it be that the brushes r still touching the copper part inside the motor or wat b cuz my dad said that can slow u down like 20km/12mph, jus a thought![]()
ok ya i think i now what u meen, but my prob is when im riding the bike the starter motor is turning aswel (i think thats the only way the brushes got destroyed ) now will that make a diff in top endDoubt it as the starter motor should have a clutch mechanisam to engage it to the engine to turn it over, then when you let go of the starter button it disengages.
