I am going to collect info here on Refurbing starter motors for the Cagiva Mito 125

I was hoping to do a full rebuild on this on but all it took was a bit of oil on the bearings and a good clean out and re-lube where needed .


But its quite easy to change the brushes and bearing on these stater motors and can save a lot of money .

Cut the old one off at spade connector then grind connector flat 
clean surfaces and re-solder the new brushes to this connector
