Sounds like a starter sprag. Otherwise known as a clutch. Its a one way clutch that connects the starter power to the crank. There is a fine spring like one on a seal all around it. If it gets stretched, it will be come intermittent. Just did it on an ST2. Cheers, Phil |

If you can get the sprag bearing out and inspect the inner and outer surfaces of the bearing hubs for any roughness/uneven surface if this has occurred then get it skimmed slightly(outer) and use some emery cloth to dress the inner and fit a SKF seal spring that best suits the bearing proper,don't worry to much if the rollers have slight damage to them as I had one on mine and it has not caused any problems!Done 50,000 k's no worries. |

Hi Sean. The spring is usually the culprit with the sprag, and can be replaced with one off an SKF Oil Seal. There is a few posts here that cover it all. A KTM Sprag (new) is also available that is a direct replacement, and is about half the price of a genuine Ducati (don't figure?) unit. Again, the posts here have all that info. Have a look at posts: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6359&hilit=sprag and viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6808&hilit=sprag That should keep you busy! Cheers. Nick. |

hello guys. lately i been busy. just have time to open up and see what wrong with the starter sprag. i found out that rollers have some damage. few of the rollers is bent at the gap where the spring fit in and the new spring wont fit in so i have to use sand paper to sand most of the damage part down. so the spring can fit in the gap. since i got a new spring. the inner surface have some uneven surface. should i just use sand paper to smooth them out? please let me know thanks guys |
