Anyone have any internal Starter parts?
So i went to pull my starter off today and found extremely rusty nuts under the rubber boot (the nuts that hold the starter cable on).
I had to use an impact to get it off, but i failed to hold the stud properly and i cracked the plastic ring inside the starter housing.
Anyone have one of the plastic ring pieces?
(Note: check under your rubber boot and clean this connection!)

One of long screws that holds my starter in place is seized.
It's bottomed out against the engine case like it was too long, or should have had a washer installed under the bolt head to prevent the end from bottoming out. I have no plan on attempts to remove it without snapping it off. I tried heating the case by running the bike hard and making another try. But the bolt twists and springs back as if bottomed out with corrosion at the end of the bolt area.
No hurry to remove it, yet.

The long screws hold the starter pieces together, the short screws hold the starter onto the engine. You should be able to remove the short screws and pull the starter from your bike.

Still looking if anyone has any internal starter parts they don't need please let me know. I do not need a whole starter, would prefer to just get the parts i need from another member here.
