RICK'S MOTORSPORT ELECTRIC starter motor, model 61-701, is designed as an aftermarket replacement for the Ducati application identified by the manufacturer. It addresses a common concern found in many OEM starter motors, where an unprotected output needle bearing is positioned outside the output shaft seal and may be exposed to moisture entering the electric motor’s output cap.
This unit uses a double-sealed ball bearing with the output shaft seal positioned on the outside of the bearing. This design helps protect the bearing from damaging water entry while also making the sealed ball bearing replaceable. The manufacturer part number is 61-701, and the vendor part number is 61-701.
Fitment is for the Ducati application specified by RICK'S MOTORSPORT ELECTRIC. Verify the vehicle application and part number before purchase to confirm proper fitment.
