RICK'S MOTORSPORT ELECTRIC starter motor, model 61-204, is an aftermarket replacement designed for Kawasaki applications. The unit addresses a common concern found in many OEM starter motors, where an unprotected output needle bearing is positioned outside the output shaft seal.
Moisture can enter the output cap of the electric motor and travel along the armature shaft to the exposed bearing, potentially causing corrosion. RICK'S MOTORSPORT ELECTRIC incorporates a double-sealed ball bearing with the output shaft seal positioned outside the bearing. This design helps protect the bearing from damaging water entry while allowing the sealed ball bearing to be replaced.
