[QUOTE="Sten Jensen, post: 123734, member: 430"] My friend Martin Jensen from Denmark has build an Egli-type Vincent with Molnar crankcase, Terry Prince bob weight Crank and Top End kits giving 1330cc, with 10.5:1 c.r. pistons (11.5:1 c.r. with 100mm stroke ??) and TP Mk5 cams. He has fitted a Bendix drive starter from a Harley 1200 Sportster driving a gear behind the Newby belt driven clutch and uses Harley electric decompressors which are triggered together with the starter. The starter is powered by a littium battery. Works very well He has not done any welding to the cases, just machined some holes and bolted it on. The starter is hanging a bit low (Godet style) to clear the chain. His videos are on Facebook, so I believe you needs a FB acount to view them: Pictures of Bike: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.facebook.com/groups/792118730806381/permalink/3078002672217964/[/URL] Harley Starter installation: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.facebook.com/groups/792118730806381/permalink/3177690915582472/[/URL] 'First' start of engine: [MEDIA=facebook]1528703093979406[/MEDIA] The gear behind the clutch is Module 2.5, 72 teeth. Center to center distance from clutch to starter drive is 103.00 mm. If you can get a 73 teeth drive it will give a little more room and distance will be 104.25 mm. The G2 cover needs to have a bit of material removed to make room for the gear. The battery is a Jigawatt LBB18S with 750cca (!!) from www truecousins.dk. It will start the engine both with and without decompression valve.
