Maintain peak performance and extend the life of your starter motor with the Harddrive outer starter shaft bushing.

Why riders pick this

The outer starter shaft bushing plays a critical role in the overall health of your V-twin's starting system. Located within the primary case, it provides essential support and reduces friction for the starter shaft. Over time, this bushing can wear, leading to misalignment, grinding noises, and increased strain on the starter motor. Replacing it with a high-quality, OEM-equivalent Harddrive bushing helps restore proper function and prevent more costly repairs down the line.
