nuevototem Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hi to all, For some time I have starting problems with my bike, always suppose that was an electric problem related to the relays. A few days ago I start hearing a disturbing noise from inside the electric starter motor. I take it apart to check it out and this is what I find... Can you help me guys? Were can I find a new Valeo D6RA210? I live in Barcelona Spain. Thanks in advance, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare that to the price Guzzi charge for a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gary Cheek Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I still have the Valeo I took off my California when I put the Bosch starter on. Not new, is only a few miles old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuevototem Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 Hi to all, Thanks guzziownr and Guzzirider for your links! I am checking them out. Gary Cheek. Yes, is interesting to buy yours if is cheap of course. 1) Why you change it for the Bosh one? 2) Can you confirm is a D6RA210 one? 3) I leave in Barcelona Spain were are you? Best regards.

Karl Von Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Mine went bad awhile back. It was the typical problem with the field magnets becoming un-glued. Seems this happens allot in humid environments. Anyway I took it to a good local automotive alternator-starter shop and they cleaned the starter, walnut blasted the armature and re-glued the magnets, all for around 90 bucks. They use a marine epoxy for the magnets, so I doubt I will have trouble with them again. I was weary about buying a new Valeo as it seems they still can not use a good adhesive for the magnets.

nuevototem Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 Hi to all, Thanks for your help in this matter!

raz Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Hi to all, Thanks for your help in this matter! I am thinking to change the relays because I found them starting to fail Any recommendation were to buy them in Europe? Thanks in advance I take it you are now talking about the ordinary relays. I ordered a full set from Pyro Dan and it was in my mail box (in Sweden) within a week. He even sent them before receiving payment. And the shipping costs were next to none (I ordered 12 pcs).

quazi-moto Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 That EME site has some nice stuff. Overhaul kits and upgraded field magnet housings as well as OEM replacement starters. My bike will sometimes stop cranking during cold start ups and I can hear it whining away. It seems okay on hot re-starts. The battery & charging system seem to be okay so maybe its time for a rebuild or replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luhbo Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I think that actually the best replacement on the market is this: "Anlasser" or here: Specs For me it looks perfect. It costs 200,- Euros. Sorry for those who can't understand this language, but you can PM me. I'll forward you. Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance, You will get one on ebay new ones are on all the time, they are pretty poor and when they fail they fail the rebuild kit is as much as buying a new starter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luhbo Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 A starter should stand a car's lifetime. This Valeo does not work in a motorcycle. If you buy a new Valeo you just buy new crap, even if it's cheaper than expected. Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
