The dealer (who was a Norton dealer) said it gone. He did not elaborate.

Maybe these folks can help you if you can get it off..

Hello ntst8 , No it does not. The clutch basket and starter ring gear are one piece on HD . If you mean using the entire HD clutch basket ? I have not looked into it , but I would assume not. Do you need a ring gear or a new starter ? Can't you order it from Norton ?

Thanks Tony, there is a pic in the Rebuilds section, 961 Birthday thread, of a very battered ring gear. The starter motor works but they don’t play well together.
I emailed the factory a week ago but presumably due to the Covid lock down haven’t had a response to date.

I seen on Facebook on the 961 forum, someone said the 961 uses the exact same starter as the kabota sub compact tractors.

Hi - does the starter or solenoid do anything? I have had two starter issues so far -
1. The holder of the brushes was corroded and so the brushes did not slide and lost contact with the commutator. Managed to fix with starter on the bike and kept running until the factory replaced it.
2. The connector onto the solenoid came undone inside the solenoid. Fixed at the factory and still running ok.
If the starter does absolutely nothing it could be a stand/ clutch interlock issue.........

Hi Voodoo , Mounting flange looks wrong in the photo. Compare to Harley Sportster starter to be safe . HD OEM is about $350 , aftermarket less than $200. You don't need the 1.4KW starter in my opinion. The standard 1.2KW is fine . The motor body is 1/4in. longer on the 1..4 KW version. Harley OEM will be sealed , aftermarket may NOT be. Remember Kubota runs dry ? I can tell you this much , A Harley Sportster Starter years 2008 - 2020 works I ran an aftermarket High torque for a year before I changed it out for the oil weeping out.
Look at this one and compare :
Starter For Harley-Davidson XL Harley Sportster Roadster 1980-2012; 410-52496

I dont disagree. I’m glad you noticed, the guy on the FB forum in the UK said it worked. Haven’t heard anything back since.Hi Voodoo , Mounting flange looks wrong in the photo.
