Do you by chance know if that starter drive gear (bendix) is the same for all models? I’m working on an 04 650 quest XT and that gear was pretty beat up on mine and would no longer spin. They discontinued it for the 650s and I can’t find it anywhere. The gear looks identical to the other motors. Thanks
I may be dealing with the same thing on my 04. Any progress on that? The starter is new, but when I hit the starter button it just sounds like the engine is locked up but it isn't. Is that what's going on with yours?
