| why don't you just take your starter to a shop that recons that kind of thing? i've had loads done in uk. cost around $60. turnaround: less than 24 hours. no probs.
perhaps you don't have such places?

| I have dealt with Mark and Moe to a lesser degree over the years- they are great guys and they deserve our business, but I am also trying to get a working starter as economically as possible- and I can find rebuit bosch starters for old fiats for around $75 with the solenoid from a reputable shop nearby my home- but I have to have something to reference it to (they have to send to a local distribution wherehouse and they will not let me go down there and pick through them to find the right one-) they don't have a guzzi reference manual, and the actual starter itself has bosch part number 000-001157-006- which apparently is not in the bosch books anymore. So what I am trying to find is someone who has actually found the exact guzzi starter as a stock part from a car so I can reference it- or someone who has gone through this before maybe they have a new bosch part number that corresponds to this starter.
Thanks for everyones help and comments- if I figure this out i will post it for everyone to see.

| Check with Moe at Cycle Garden, I bought a Marelli rebuild from him, sent him my old starter, he sent me the rebuild. I think Mark at MG Classics repairs them, not sure if he sells rebuilds.
