Hi Everyone!
I have a 2105 Z-Force 800 EX and haven't had much opportunity to put a whole lot of kilometres on it yet. However, I'm hearing of starter issues specifically with the C-Force and U-Force 800 involving serious starter issues that include more than just starter replacement.
Has anyone here had any such experience or know of incidents that others have had? I'm curious as to what I may encounter in the forseeable future.
Thank you for your time and and input would be greatly appreciated.

Although there are several starter-related issues that occur on CFMs, the two that are always on top are: 1, the one-way sprag or clutch starts slipping or fails from breakage and 2, the starter motor itself either gets rusted-up inside because they are NOT water-tight or as CFM never assembles anything with enough lubrication, the bearings dry out and start having issues. I have a little issue with both the clutch and starter bearings but it only shoes-up when it's been sitting long periods in the cold so...if/when it starts acting up when warm I guess I'll have to deal with it.
